Solve : Should I consider a 2nd Win10 copy for a work HD?? |
Answer» <html><body><p>Allow me to explain...<br/><br/>Soon I'll start a job at home that requires me to use Windows 10 Home.<br/>At the moment I have a pc that came with Win10 already. I have 3 accounts, for each of us in the family.<br/>I do have backups of the whole HD of course.<br/><br/>But to keep things even smoother and further from technical difficulties along the way, would it be a good idea to get another HD with its own copy of Win10 boot from. That way if something goes south with the personal HD, it won't affect my work HD.<br/>Or should there be no reason to expect such problems on the first <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/place-239418" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about PLACE">PLACE</a>?<br/>Or there is a better solution?<br/><br/>Thanks guys!too <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/subjective-7383826" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about SUBJECTIVE">SUBJECTIVE</a> a question and too many variables for me to say one way or the other.<br/>what are the ages of the other PC users?what is the nature of the work?is security or data <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/sensitivity-639888" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about SENSITIVITY">SENSITIVITY</a> a concern?budget?<br/>The best solution is one computer for home and another for work. If that's not in the cards, then a <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/second-238031" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about SECOND">SECOND</a> instance of Windows doesn't make much sense to me.I agree that you should have a second computer for work, that way things won't get tangled between personal and work.<br/><br/>However, even if you stick with a single computer, instead of a second copy of Windows, just keep frequent backups. Tailor the frequency of the backups by how important the work data is and how <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/often-585098" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about OFTEN">OFTEN</a> it changes. If you keep system images then if your hard drive dies, you'd only need to replace the drive and do a restore to be back in business.<br/><br/>I have had quite a few jobs where I did work from home. The companies I have worked for would never allow use of a personal computer, they always provided (and supported) a computer and would only allow the use of that particular computer to access the company domain. <br/>If it's the same PC with 2 HDD's you can install Win to the 2nd HDD without buying it...perfectly legal.Thank you so much for your ideas and suggestions guys!<br/><br/>For now I am sticking to the idea of getting a SFF pc (Small Form Factor computer), and use a 4-port KVM switch between them. <br/>It's been very educational learning from your replies.<br/><br/>DPC</p></body></html> | |
