Going away for 3 months

[tburdz]

So I am going away for 3 months and my pc will not be used at all it has gtx 970 i7 4790k 1 ssd 1 hdd evga supernova g2 750 and the os is win 7 pro

Is there anything I should do to it before I leave. I leave tomorrow.

Is it going to stay off? Then no, there is nothing you need to do to it.

Give it a goodbye kiss. Also tell it that you'll return soon and not to cry when you're gone.

I'd go ahead and unplug the system and monitor from the wall outlet.

Just saying, as I'm mainly interested in understanding if it's a true fact or not, but doesn't the SSD risk on losing data by staying off for such a long time?

Otherwise, pretty much what Wolfshadw said is enough.

 

[Vice93]

Enterprise SSD's carry that risk, but they never get turned off anyway unless they are replaced.

Consumer grade SSD's (which is what you have) can hold information for years without any power (how many years though, I do not know).

Weird...I keep hearing it's the other way around from friends and colleagues. Thanks for clarifying so promptly 😛
