Dell Computer Hard Reset

My first serious computer was a Dell PC with an 80gig hard drive. I discovered that a loaded hard drive equals a computer that grinds to a halt. I purchaced this 1TB drive to accompany my Sony Vaio, with an almost 500GB drive, to keep from overworking my computer. With lots of raw image files from a Nikon D-300, it's easy to see the Vaio getting overloaded sometime in the future. The Western Digital Elements SE portable drive will be the primary storage destination for me, keeping the Vaio unencumbered to maintain it's operating speed and perhaps minimize the possibility of other recovery problems.

Needed an external hard drive for my larger Dell Inspiron 15 computer. just like my smaller Dell travel computer. I needed some extra space.

Upgraded a Dell computer with this; worked well

bought a dell windows 10 computer with 4 g memory. the thing couldn't do anything not enough memory. Dell wanted way too much to upgrade the memory so i looked up the stats and i ordered this. The computer now functions great. So i added 4 x the memory and i still have the option of installing the 4 g in addition to the 16 but i don't really need it since the 16 is now pleanty to run the system for my needs.

Exactly what I needed to transfer my videos and pics to do a clean reset on my computer!

Dell is reliable, and the Optiplex 7020 gives me what I need in a desktop computer.

8GB SDRAM is much better than 4GB in my DELL desktop computer.

I have not had to reset like I did with the other one

Installed fine in my Alienware Aurora R12. Did a CMOS reset and battery reset. Computer rebooted several times and finally booted to Windows. So far, so good. I now have this RAM installed alongside the OEM ram for 48gb.

I mainly uses this for cloning my existing computer SSDs. I had a nasty reset problem on my favorite laptop and now will purchase more of these to use as backup devices for my other computers, especially my desktop. Well built and reliable.
