Here you can buy used drives and laptop pockets with confidence
Laptops have a number of undeniable advantages over stationary system units. Small dimensions and weight of the device, mobility, full equipment with peripherals - all these qualities can undoubtedly be attributed to the advantages. Laptops have much fewer disadvantages, one of which is the difficulty of upgrading, but these problems are quite solvable, for example, you can add a hard drive by buying an SSD pocket for a laptop or installing an internal HDD pocket for a laptop.
Characteristics of laptop pockets
There are a lot of laptop accessories available, so each type should be considered separately. If you don't have enough disk space, you can add another hard drive using a pocket.
Types of pockets:
- External pocket - looks like a box inside which an HDD or SSD is fixed and connected via USB;
- Internal pocket - installed instead of a DVD drive, connected to the SATA interface.
If the DVD drive is rarely used, it can be replaced with an internal pocket. And if DVD is important, then there are external pockets for the drive with a USB connection.
There are significant differences in the hard drives themselves. HDDs are prone to breakage when dropped and have moving parts. SSDs are more reliable and faster, but more expensive. An external SSD pocket can be safely carried around.
Form factor of pockets:
- 9.5 mm - standard internal pocket size
- 12.7 mm - for larger drive models
By assembling the external drive yourself (pocket + drive), you can save a lot of money compared to off-the-shelf solutions.
Drives for laptops
Despite the decline in popularity of CD/DVDs, drives are still relevant for viewing personal archives or old disks. If the drive is broken, it's better to find an original used drive of the same model. A Lenovo drive will not work with an ASUS laptop.
