I knew it was time for a new internal hard drive when I noticed that I was about to run out of space for adding new tunes to my computer. As a professional DJ, continuing to build and expand our music library is essential to success with our customers, especially here in the NJ & NY region.
I visited The Apple Store last week for advice and recommendations on which hard drive to purchase and determined that the Samsung 1TB drive would be the best option for me. Even though I do a Time Machine back up of my whole system weekly and once more ten minutes before removing the old one, I was nervous, very nervous about the wedding I have this Saturday. What if something went wrong and I did not have use of my MacBook? What if somehow it erased or lost my entire music library; all 35,000+ songs?
Well, fortunately nothing bad happened. I installed it properly and transferred all the data successfully. There have been some collections I have wanted to strengthen and build larger and now I have the opportunity to do so! I can’t wait to work on filling up the whole 1TB – a fun and ambitious challenge. But hey, this is what professional DJs get excited about.
