Hello. I would like to ask for help. Once upon a time we bought a system unit assembled in KEE. Much time has passed and it looks like it is outdated. I have a lot of videos and photos, but it does not support a separate hard drive, and recently it stopped turning on if we connect a second hard drive. Please tell me what to look for when buying and where to buy.
I understand that it is better not to take the assembled system unit. Unfortunately, I practically don't understand computers. We need a system engineer, mainly for working with documentation, storing videos and photos, and of course the Internet. We don't play games at all. I would be grateful for all the advice.

Anatoly, Thank you. And if I then connect a storage for 1-2 TB my computer. will be able to work? because at the moment, even when a 500 GB disk is connected, it does not boot, and its memory is completely full.

So I have a problem that I cannot connect adequate storage, my computer does not boot, it hangs on processing the storage, if I understand correctly. I will try to do as Anatoly advised and continue to decide. Thank you.

Do you connect the second hard drive to the system or as a USB flash drive?

As rightly noted shade, your power supply is too weak and its capacity is not enough to power one more hard drive.
As an option: Docking station for HDD 3,5 'AgeStar 3FBCP1 SATA / IDE - this model allows you to connect both old and new disks to a computer (but only one disk at a time, not several at a time!), But it takes power for its work from the electrical network using its power supply, and not from a computer. This station is also convenient in that it can be connected to both new and old computers.
System unit

A short description of this device can be read there: 🔗


And in a new computer, if you decide to purchase, store all your materials, including photos and videos on friend a disk that is also installed in the computer, but on which the operating system is not installed + "everything that is important to you", also store it in the form of archived files and also on the disk (in case of damage to the disk, the archives are much more likely to recover), on which it is not installed operating system (more chances to connect the disk without problems, if necessary, to another computer with a different operating system).

We have two hard drives, a 250 GB hard drive is connected like a USB flash drive, and the second one with 500 GB is already in the system, there are only videos and photos. At first, the computer saw it, we also configured archiving there. And then it stopped turning on, hung on the boot drive F, this is this 500GB drive. I had to disconnect it for now. But you need to throw all the videos and photos somewhere already from the computer's memory, I'm afraid to lose them, mostly all family ones. Yes, and the computer works very slowly, I have it, of course, not for work, but still annoying. We bought it 10 years ago, they still scared me with the lifespan of the hard drive, so I started thinking.

IrinaYou obviously have a problem with the motherboard, maybe with the power supply, if you don't want to buy a new system unit for repair.Alternatively, buy a new system unit, connect an old hard drive to it, upload a photo. Another option while the pc is breathing is to connect over the grid and transfer your data. Regarding the new PC, a budget employee is suitable for you, but with an INTEL Celeron G4920 processor or higher and a WD 1-2 TB hard drive and 4GB memory. It is better, of course, to assemble to order, but ready-made solutions for home are not very bad, for example, ACER Veriton ES2730G, Intel Core i3 8100, DDR4 4GB, 1000GB, Intel UHD Graphics 630, Windows 10 Home, black [dt.vs2er.006] the only thing now I have to put up with Windows 10 and the ready-made ones practically do not upgrade

Alexander, Thank you so much. And then at first they wanted to buy a complete set, then I read it, it seems like it's better to collect it ourselves, and since they are not specialists, you don't know which is better, but the amount for us is very decent, I would like to choose for a while.
