My primary hard drive (C drive) is about to be full. It has less than 5GB of available memory and it's only 40GB.

I've heard that you should keep a 15% or 20% of space available on you primary drive....and if you don't, it will slow down your machine.

My secondary hard drive is a 250GB and has plenty of space.

Most of my photos, documents, and video are in "My Documents" which is on my C drive. "My documents" alone contains about 13GB of data.

I was hoping I could simply cut and paste "My documents" and move it to my secondary (F) hard drive. If so, how should I do that?

Is this advisable to do? Will it cause any problems?

Please advise. I need to make some space available on my C drive.

I have to put an ethernet card into my 10 yr old computer. I have the back cover off the computer, but I need to "punch out" the metal slot so the metal part of the ethernet card is sticking out. I see no screws there, so how do I get the metal slot out of the back cover? Am I making any sense?

Instead of shutting down my computer I clicked on the standby option. Came back and it wouldn't kick on. No fan sound, nothing. I unplugged it from both the wall and the tower and the light kept blinking. Then I pushed and held the power button till it stopped blinking, tried to turn it back on and nothing happened. I unplugged it for a couple of days and tried it again, but nothing. Any idea what it could be or why it is doing this? Thanks.

I have to finish connecting the parts of my PC but I'm not sure where to plug in my SATA hard drive. Theres 6 ports on the MOBO labelled SATA 1-6, and another port labelled SATA RAID2.
These are the only ports which will accept the SATA cable. Which one do I use? For now I will only be using one hard drive.

I know it's based in Vancouver Canada but does it work in the UK too? It is supposed to track your laptop if it gets stolen.
