ICY TIP: Restore New Life Into Your Older Hard Drives to Maximize Available Free Space

ICY TIP: Restore New Life Into Your Older Hard Drives to Maximize Available Free Space
Restore New Life Into Your Older Hard Drives to Maximize Available Free Space
Anyone that is a computer enthusiast, builds computers or maintains computers probably has accumulated a large collection of old hard drives over the years. The problem with these old drives is just that the low capacity does not allow for much practical use in many applications. It is hard to use these smaller drives if you are saving a large amount of data on them across many hard drives and which can quickly become unorganized. In most cases, people simply leave their old drive alone because they do not have the proper tools to help them organize their drives.

Many of the Icy Dock products provide solutions which breathe new life into old hard drives and also make them more organized to give you more “free space”. With hot-swap enclosures, you can easily install the drive and do all the transfers in no time. Even if you can’t fit all of your data on one drive, swapping drives in and out of our enclosures is easy to do. This is extremely useful during the current hard drive shortage. The increase of hard drives cost is very worrisome for many consumers and would strongly prefer to have a solution that reduce costs as much as possible, meanwhile, making full use of hard drives that they already own.

Here are the solutions we would like to introduce to you:

Since the HDD prices are so expensive right now, you should consider investing in an enclosure and organize your old drives and obtain free space available from them. You will be surprised to find a great amount of free space from your old drives. This will come in great savings, in comparison to purchasing a completely new hard drive. Once the hard drive prices go down, you will be able to buy new drives and simply swap the drives within the Icy Dock enclosure, providing the most effective solution for both old and new hard drives.
