disgo - The uses
Various
people's uses for a disgo.
The disgo can be used just as if it was a
floppy disk or another hard disk drive. The files stored on the disgo are
accessible from any computer with a USB port. The data stored on the disgo can
be altered, edited, copied, printed, etc. in fact there is no difference in
using the data stored on a disgo to using the data normally on a PC and it is
just as fast to use - and in many cases even faster!
The disgo replaces the difficulties often found
with multi-disk backups - Just "drag & drop" the data onto the disgo or
instead of saving to several floppy disks save to the disgo in a fraction of
the time.
The disgo is used in an enormous number of
places. We have listed below just a few of the uses we have come
across:
School Students:
- Homework done at home and carried to school
easily and uploaded to the school system.
- Projects done at school and home can be
easily synchronised.
University Under-Graduates &
Graduates:
- The fast & easy transportation of
project research data to another site.
- Thesis backup and always having a copy with
you just in case!
- Project work done at home can be "handed-in"
to lecturers by copying to their computer.
- Very fast copying of data downloaded at one
site that needs to be somewhere else.
Sales Personnel:
- Price lists can be transported simply and
read or copied to customers computers .. No need for bulky pricelists and keeps
printing costs down.
- Pictures & Photos of products that would
be in a catalogue can be copied to a customers computer.
- Powerpoint presentations are simple to carry
around just in case they are needed.
Company Accounts Department
Managers:
- Data backups for security can easily and
quickly be taken during the day.
Human Resource Department
Managers:
- Keeping personnel files away from prying
eyes by keeping all data on the disgo and not on the main computer.
Company Directors:
- Keeping confidential files off the company
system, but useable all the time when the disgo is plugged in for reading,
writing, altering and all normal functions.
Accountants:
- Taking the "End of Year" accounts data away
from a company for the annual audit.
PDA Users (Palm, WinCE, Psion
etc.):
- Carry a full backup of your entire device
just in case the worst nightmare actually happens. Restoring to the PDA now
becomes just a couple of minutes work and no data loss. Just find the nearest
PC - They really are everywhere these days - and copy your files across. This
is especially useful if you are on holiday or away from your PC for an extended
period of time. No more worries that "It Broke" or "It fell into the sea" or
even the most common reason of all - It got lost / stolen. The disgo has got
your data so a full restore is always close at hand.
Authors
- Keeping a safety backup of your manuscript
and taking the manuscript to the publisher.
The list just goes on & on ...
