Seagate tackles upgrade fear factor | |

Seagate is targeting the do-it-yourself crowd with PC hard drive upgrade kits that will be sold at retail. The Scotts Valley, Calif.-based company, which sells hard drives and hard drive kits, said Friday that the new upgrade packages include detailed instructions and software that helps install the drive and diagnose problems. All of this for buyers who aren't afraid to crack open the case on their PC. For most consumer PC owners, upgrading the memory is the first step in updating an older PC. The process involves opening the case and inserting the memory module into a slot in the motherboard. Replacing a hard drive isn't much more complicated, and it is often the next step on the upgrade path, giving older PCs a boost in storage capacity. Betting that consumers who want to upgrade their own PCs will choose the easiest hard drives to install, Seagate has added a new instruction booklet and has printed the installation instructions directly on the drives. Previous kits offered separate installation instructions. | ||
