i have a seagate backup plus 3tb external hard drive and i was planning on using it sideways because its easy to tip over cuz its shaped like a tower pc. so is it bad for the hard drive to use it like that?

Answer
it should be fine

Compaq presario sr5223wm won't start up when my WD My Book 3TB External Hard Drive is in?

Danger

I have two WD My Book 3TB External Hard Drives. My old computer broke and my new one is a Compaq. My old computer would run just fine if I left in my hard drives but the Compaq won't boot past the load screen if the hard drives are plugged in. They work just fine if I plug them in after it boots up. Is there a way I can set things up so I can just leave them plugged in without issue?

Answer
In your BIOS check your "boot order" and move "usb" down. I prefer cd - first, hard disk second and the rest really don't make much difference.
