KMSB Fox 11 Segment – A External Storage Housing from UGreen

For this Segment, We cover an inexpensive way to repurpose your Hard Drive and use it as an External Drive. In the Past We have recommended to upgrade laptops, to install an SSD (Solid State Device) Hard Drive. These are more efficient and faster. Some laptops today or in the not to recent past will include the SATA drives with moving parts so what do you do when you do a change out with that old drive? We take a look at a way to use that drive as a backup for Data and its super easy to DIY. One of the Products is the UGREEN 2.5 Inch Enclosure. You Open it Up, slide the drive in and connect it with the included cable. It is that easy!  The Enclosure sells for about 18 bucks. Find out more at https://www.ugreen.com

Don’t lose your free OneDrive space!

In the past, Microsoft gave 15 gigabytes (GB) of free storage space to new accounts of their OneDrive service by default. They have changed that policy…

“Free OneDrive storage will decrease from 15 GB to 5 GB for all users, current and new. The 15 GB camera roll storage bonus will also be discontinued. These changes will start rolling out in early 2016.”

If you want to try to keep your 15 GB free storage space, and possibly more, Microsoft has posted:

“…we’re making it possible for you to keep your base storage quota and camera roll bonus, even after the changes roll out.

“Click…and your account will not be affected when the amount of free storage changes from 15 GB to 5 GB and the +15 GB camera roll bonus is discontinued.”
