Of course, PCs are not meant to be moved from one side to the other. In that case, it is often sold with wheelchairs that can make this work a little tricky. However, in this case we are talking about moving them around our house. Or from the office. But, just in case a long way, the object is changing. Because, in these cases, transport is subject to many factors beyond the control of the user.
So, when you go to LAN party. Or send a tagged party to someone else. All we have to do is try to minimize the dangers posed by these transportation. Especially if this move will be made by a third party. That you don't have to be interested as we are in the process is to arrive exactly where you are going. Special mention of parcel companies, who handle our shipment as they are being handled.
Problematic issues when deploying our PC
The elements Our computer which may cause problems are:
- He heatsink the processor. Especially if it's a very large and / or heavy model. These models tend to put a lot of torque on the base plate. Therefore, they can damage or start the processor socket itself.
- The graphics card. Since modern graphics cards are usually bundled. And its adhesive system is usually in two simple screws for the PC case. If the machine falls from a certain height, the image is able to start the data slot where it is connected.
- He hard drive We all know that hardworking drivers are more resistant to serious consequences. This makes them the first thing to move them in the safest way possible.
The direct way to move a PC
The best way to move our PC doesn't have to be the most efficient way to do it. In fact i correctly doing so involves combining several components. Among them, are the aforementioned, the most problematic.
This means that, in electronic devices such as graphics card and hard disk, we have to get them antistatic bags to save them. With a little luck, we'll still keep the original of both types. Alternatively, you will need to find these online.
As long as both sides are wrapped in compatible bags, it is important to wrap them around to wrap. This way, we will make sure they are not damaged during the trip. And for this we want to include the heatsink and its followers. However, if what you have is a liquid AIO type liquid, it is not necessary to separate it. Since, when protected from the box itself, it is unlikely that it will leak out of its scales.
An efficient way to move a PC
When stores ship installed computers, they do not do it in combination. No, instead they tend to collect them all inside the box with antistatic bubble wrap.
The bottom line is that, by placing the bubble wrap between the elements, he will not be able to get inside. As you can see from the previous image, other types of input can also be used. Solid foam, to help keep things in place.
Most importantly to fill the space between the heatsink and the graphics card. And from the graphics card to the bottom of the box. As we have already mentioned, the important thing is that the elements do not move from within during transportation
