A laptop is destructible. If it is dropped the wrong way or banged too hard, the hard drive can crash, or the screen can crack. Both issues require expensive repairs, and, in some cases, machines are not even salvageable. Beyond issues with drops and bumps, you also must be careful of environmental damage. While traveling with a laptop, you want to keep your laptop dry. Even if you do not work in a marine environment, you can still experience an unexpected rainstorm. Water damage to a computer can fry important electronics, which can cause permanent data loss. Blow molded carrying cases are built air and watertight, so you do not need to worry if your case gets wet. It would be best if you avoided completely submerging cases.
When at home or in the office, we protect laptops by keeping them in safe spots away from heavy traffic, food, and liquids. It is common to see laptops perched securely on laptop stands, which is a great place to keep them out of danger. When traveling with a laptop, you must go above and beyond to ensure its safety. This is especially the case when traveling with multiple laptops.
What would it mean to your business to lose valuable data stored on laptops?
Traveling with soft-sided cases is convenient because of how light the bags are, but there is a big trade-off in safety and protection. If you care about fully protecting your computers while traveling, you will strongly consider blow molded cases. Blow molded cases for laptops are great because they are fully customizable. No two laptops are created the same, so even if the screen is 13 inches, dimensions vary between models and manufacturers. Putting a laptop into a 13-inch case does not mean the system will fit like a glove. It is likely that the computer moves around in the case or sleeve. Custom carrying cases with foam inserts are designed to meet your exact needs and specifications.
