software itself.
Do not run software such as a screen saver which can put a heavy load
on the processor.

including any software that checks files automatically in the
background.
Do not use any hard disk utilities, including those that are intended to
enhance hard disk drive access speeds, as they may cause unstable
operation and damage data.
