EQUIPMENT BEING MADE internal hard drive EXTERNAL

Here I do not discuss about the external hard drive, but will discuss how the existing internal hard drive on a PC can be used as an external hard drive or a portable hard drive that can be taken anywhere and used without plugging it in pc, but simply by using a usb plugs. Certainly not going to use any software, because there is no connection. Shocket was also no change on the hard drive. However, by using additional data cable, the USB 2.0 TO SATA IDE CABLE or also referred to as SATA / IDE CABLE TO USB CONVERTER. This enhancement serves to connect the hard drive of a connection with SATA or IDE type into a USB connection. This data cable you can buy in stores computer, which for the moment (date of posting) prices ranging from approximately Rp. 65.000, -. USB 2.0 SATA IDE CABLE TO can also be used to connect the cd / dvd rom with a computer or laptop or netbook. This is certainly a great help for users netbook / laptop that is not on the cd / dvd rom her to install windows and open files from CD or DVD copies.
Well for a friend who had a hard drive that is unused or want to increase the capacity of the disk volume's computer, or if friends requires a lot of files that must be taken, USB 2.0 SATA IDE CABLE TO could be one alternative to try.
Suggestion: in using this external hard drive should be the position of the hard drive in case of a flat and safe place to keep let remain durable.

Hard drive is one of the most important components in a computer, for that you should be familiar with the type of hard drive according to the conditions ana computer.

1. IDE

IDE (Integrated Drive Electronics) is a standard interface between a computer motherboard data bus with disk storage. IDE interface created by the IBM PC Industry Standard Architecture (ISA) 16-bit bus. Interface of the IDE is the interface for storage devices that can teringrasi to disk or CD-ROM drive. Although the IDE is a general technology, most people use the term to refer to the ATA specification. While the AHCI (Advanced Host Controller Interface) is a hardware mechanism that allows software to communicate with SATA such as host bus adapters are designed for hot-plug and native command queuing (NCQ), which can raise the ability of the computer / system / hard disk, especially in a multi-tasking environment by allowing the drive to perform read and write commands are sent at random with a view to optimizing the head movement in the reading process. AHCI has been supported by various operating systems such as Windows Vista and Linux kernel 2.6.19.

2. ATA

Most types of drives used by computer users is the type of ATA (known as IDE drives). Type ATA made by standard 1986 using a 16-bit parallel and continues to grow with the addition of transfer speed and the size of a disk. The latter is a standard ATA-7 which was first introduced in 2001 by the T13 committee (the committee responsible for determining the standard ATA). Type ATA-7 has a data transfer rate of 133 MB / sec. then during the year 2000 set the standard for parallel ATA has a data rate of 133 MB / sec, but the parallel ATA there are many problems it singnal thymine, EMI (electromognetic interference) and intergitas data. Then the industry in trying to resolve the problems caused by the parallel ATA and created a new standard called Serial ATA (SATA)

ATA (Advanced Technology Attachment) using 16-bit parallel is used to control computer equipment, and has been in use for 18 years as a standard. Differences SATA and ATA is easiest data cables and power are different.

ATA standard, such as the 200GB Western Digital model, have a two-inch ribbon cable with a 40 pin data connections and requires a 5V for each pin of the 4-pin connection. Meanwhile, 120 GB SATA like western Digital Model has a half-inch wide, 7 connector so that the data connection is thinner and easier to manage kebel data. SATA data cable has a maximum length of 1 meter (39.37 inches) longer than the ATA is only 18 inches.

3. SATA

With 15-pin SATA power cable with 250 mV, seems to require a lot more power in comparison with 4-pin ATA, but in fact the same. And the ability of the nicest SATA is possible to achieve maximum bandwidth of 150 MB / sec

Other advantages of SATA is SATA is made with hot-swap capability so that it can turn off and turn without shut down the computer system.

Whereas in the price, the more expensive SATA drives slightly compared ATA drives, SATA kesimpulanya more have advantages over ATA connector, power, and most importantly performance. ATA standard has now started on the left and the producers choose the SATA standard.

Parts Hard Drive

Posted on 13/10/2009 by dunkom

As we know the hard drive is the storage of data and documents, as well as a System OS and application programs installed. Actually Notebook can be classified in Memory, the memory permanently, because data and documents stored will not be lost once the computer is off or in offkan.

In the hard drive, there are several important components, knowing the components of this hard drive we can better preserve our hard drives so that we secure documents and data stored on it. Because if you have important data, so if your hard drive is damaged, the data you also were damaged. But when Mother Board or other components damaged while the hard disk is not damaged, you can replace the other components of your hard drive and install it and the data remains safe.

Here are some important components of a hard drive:

Platter

The shape of a plate or a disc that serves as a store data.Berbentuk round, a compact disc, has the magnetic patterns on the sides permukaanya.Platter made of metal containing millions of tiny magnets called magnetic-domain domain.Domain This is set in one or two directions to represent a binary "1" and "0"

In the disc consists of multiple tracks, and some sectors, where sctor track and this is where the data storage and file system. For example our hard drive capacity of 40 GB, when formatted capacity is up to 40 Gb. because there must be trac and the sector that is used to store the identifier ID of formatting the hard drive.

Number plates of each disk vary, depending on the technology used and the capacity of each hard-disk harddisk.Untuk latest output, usually a plate has a capacity of 10 to 20 Gigabyte.Contohnya a capacity of 40 Gigabyte hard drive, usually comprising of two plates, each with a capacity of 20 Gigabyte.

Spindle

Spindle is a place to put platter.Poros shaft has a drive which serves to rotate the disk plate called a spindle motor.Spimdle this is instrumental part in determining the quality of the disk due to the faster putaranya, means the better the quality harddisknya.Satuan to measure the velocity is Rotation Per Minutes or so-called RPM.Ukuran we often hear for the rotational speed of 5400 RPM, among others, 7200 RPM or 10000 RPM.

Head

This tool is used to read data on the plate surface and plate dalamnya.Setiap record information to the hard drive has two head.Satu on the surface and the other below the surface.

Head is in the form of electromagnetic devices that are placed on the surface of the plate and attaches to a slider.Slider attached to a stalk attached to the actuator arms arms.Actuator die mounted on the actuator shaft by a board called logic board.

Therefore, when the hard drive to work should not be any shocks or vibrations, because the head can swipe the hard drive platters that will cause bad sectors, and may also cause damage to Head hard drive so the hard drive can no longer read the Track and Sector of the hard disk.

Logic Board

Logic Board is a board operation on the hard disk, where the logic board so that there is Bios HDD hard drive when connected to the Mother Board automatically recognize the hard drive, such as Maxtor, Seagete etc. in addition to a hard drive Logic Board Bios also a switch or the Power Supply and distribution of data from the hard drive to the mother head ki Board for control by the processor.

Actual Axis

Is the axis to be a hand grip or as a robot that can read sctor Head of the hard drive.

Ribbon Cable

Ribbon cable is the link between Head Logic Board, where any documents or data that are read by the Head will be sent to the Logic Board henceforth be sent to the Mother Board so that the processor can process the data according to the input received.

Conector IDE

Is a connecting cable between the hard drive with matherboard to send or receive data.

Right now the average hard drive is already using a system that does not require a SATA ribbon cable (IDE Cable)

Setting Jumper

Each hardis has a jumper setting, its function is to determine the position of the hard drive.

When our computer hard drives installed 2 pieces, then by setting Jumper settings we can determine where the hard drive where the Primary and Secondary hard drive is usually called the Master and Slave.

Master is the main hard drive where the system is installed, while the Slave is the second hard drive is usually required for storage of documents and data. When Jumper settings are not set, then the hard drive is not going to work.

Power Conector

Is a source of direct current from the power supply. Power supply to the hard drive has two parts:

1. Voltage 12 Volt, serves to move the mechanical such as disk and Head.

2. Voltage 5 Volt, serves to power the Logic Board mesupply to work sending and receiving data.

Thus, hard drive, I hope that I write this information can be useful for you.

an example of the hard drive that I use for practice, click on the image if you want to clarify
Drive capacity will be in use at least 40 GB (let you ndak useless to purchase additional hardware) the reason, if the hard drive of your used which would be made externally only has a capacity of 5 GB to 8 GB, yes mending buy flash bro and sis bra, soale price FD with a capacity that is reasonably priced, most cuman 80 rb (IDR) wrote for the 8 GB, but the price depends on the brand is also an additional sih.Hardware:
You should look for tools that called IDE SATA to USB converter costs about 45 thousand or less anyway, this tool consists of two parts that you can see in the picture below

picture above is what is called the IDE SATA to USB converter, there are two heads of the black colored heads, used to read SATA IDE port on the hard drive, head of the white colored hardware functions for communication with the PC via the USB port.

 

(Well, his chili patch plaster participate kefoto>. <Patch chili = red hot chili paper)The second is a hardware adapter, this adapter serves as a supplier of electrical energy that could spin the hard drive disk and data content can be read by software (of course the data reader software I mean here is explorer.exe because we do not need a driver macem2 to run this external hard drive)as we know, the internal hard drive requires a power supply of a power cable that is in the CPU, now for the hard drive is no longer connected with matherboard, then we need a power cable itself, if I am not in love adapter, the hard drive going to burn.The final step is, plug the SATA IDE to USB converter jack on the poet IDE cable and install the external power cable that has been in include the adapter to the Port Cables Power, and so deh, your internal hard drive is ready to use as an external hard drive.So that the data can be read, you must plug the adapter into a power source (Java people say "power plugs" or switch if by clever people, but personally I call it a cop-Copan cable aja: p) after the disk hard drive can be spun, which in mark with a loud noise coming from the hard drive, then plug the USB cable into your laptop or computer and start the data transfer should wear regular external HDD Advantages and disadvantages[+] Can be used in all SATA hard drives, ndak only one HD that alone, so if you intend memindahin office data, off aja hard drive it, take it home, then pasangin hardware and move it to your laptop at home, home ndak remove system files, then the HD office you can still normal in pairs back in the office PC the next day.[+] Bad lah, rather than the idle HD can be used as a backing UP files on your PC and each time the file can be displayed again without disassembly CPU.
