Right after the last paper, I went home and wasted no time in running some errands which have been postponed due to my studies. The first thing I did was to buy a new harddisk as my current 160GB harddisk has been filled to its brim! I had only up to 200MB left on my C drive with Windows giving a 'very low' hardisk warning level.
After some research and consultation, I decided to go for Samsung F3 1TB harddisk. It seems like this hardidsk performs better than its Western Digital counterpart, the Black Caviar. Upon reaching home from Lowyat Plaza, I did not fix it into my PC straight away. Instead I took apart my entire computer, down to its individual components and cleaned every inch of dusts! Even the processor was not spared as I reapplied the thermal paste.
My new Samseng Samsung F3 1TB hardisk.
The interior of my PC after dusting off every parts, notice the reflection of the heatsink on the top of the graphics card?
If you remember, a few months back, I wrote a guide on washing the keyboard. I did the same thing days ago, stripping each keys off its housing and scrubbing them with detergants.
Right after that, I popped in my Windows 7 Ultimate disc and give my PC a fresh new OS. Now my PC is much faster.
Well, apart from that, I have began working on my OBU thesis. My mentor seems to be pushing us very hard to score in our thesis. While others are enjoying their holidays and Christmas, here I am, struggling on my 4500-words-long thesis.
