Is your computer slow?
If your computer is getting a little slow but is only a few years old don't go and buy a new one yet. A simple upgrade of replacing its hard drive could save you a lot of money and bring the computer's speed up to where it was or even better with a solid state hard drive. If compatible which most are my promise is then to have everything exactly as you had it. From bookmarks, installed programs to all of your emails and contacts will be there afterwards, right down to the desktop background and windows settings it will be exactly the same all just on a much better and faster hard drive.
These new hard drives are much more reliable and shock resistant than the older type of hard drive. They can take knocks that would instantly destroy the older type even while copying files. The other danger with your old hard drive is that it is slowly wearing itself out. leaving your data at risk. One of the first signs of an aging hard drive before it goes completely and costing a lot of money to get the data back (can be over $1000 for this type of specialty recovery service)
So give me a call and lets get some speed and peace of mind back.
