Five features of mobile hard disk

In the 21 century, the storage devices have become diversifying. From fixed to mobile, this transformation of storage greatly facilitates data swap between computers. By using mobile storage device, we can transfer data from one computer to another at any time, which make up the defect of fixed storage device that is hardly realizing data swap. The world popular mobile storage device—mobile hard disk could store data instead of hard disk in computer, which is the most common used. Most mobile hard disks are based on standard hard disk with a size of 2.5 inches. The biggest difference between mobile hard disk and hard disk is that the former can be moved after storing and the later can not. So hard disk is not suitable for data exchange between computers, but mobile hard disk makes it easily. Apart from this, mobile hard disk has another 5 attractive advantages including big capacity, small size, convenient to use, high transmission rate and high reliability.

Compared with the flash memory with high price, mobile hard disk is the best choice for users because of its large capacity and low price. The capacity of mobile hard disk could be 80GB, 120GB, 160GB, 320GB, 640GB and 5TB at most and soon. It is considered as the update edition of U disk and hard disk. It is noteworthy that its smaller size is convenient to carry. With its portability, people could connect it to computer to store and access data at anywhere. In addition, mobile hard disk adopts USB and IEEE1394 interface which provides high transmission rate. This advantage will be dramatically revealed when it exchanges large data between mobile hard disk and computer and data read and storage could be finished in a short time. Apart from its high transmission speed, large capacity and portability, the more significant property of mobile hard disk lies in its reliability. It is made of silica which is solider and more durable than aluminum and with high capacity and reliability. Therefore, it guarantees data integrity.

In accordance with the mentioned five advantages, mobile hard disk is the best choice for us to store data and exchange data between computers. It seems perfect. Many users have the misconception that mobile hard disk is able to ensure data security owing to its safety and reliability. However, the security of any storage device is relative rather than absolute. So we must keep it in mind that mobile hard disk can merely guarantee data security to some degree, though it has high reliability.

By using mobile hard disk, users can read and store data at any time and anywhere. Although it is favored by many people on account of its features, it is not faultless. It will be awful once data stored in mobile hard disk is lost. However, there are always solutions for problems. For instance, if the computer is infected with viruses, we could use antivirus software to get rid of viruses; when disk partition is lost, we could use partition magic to find it. And if data in mobile hard disk is lost, we could use some free data recovery software like MiniTool Power Data Recovery to restore lost data.
