Ultimate Laptop Protection - Safeguard Your Computer with Lightweight High-Quality Cases

By Shannon Hilson


Traveling with your laptop or notebook can sometimes cause extensive damage to your computer. Providing the best possible protection from the elements can be accomplished by purchasing a quality laptop carrying case. Many high-end cases offer waterproof materials and padding, as a way to safeguard your notebook from moisture and water, along with the occasional shock and trauma from dropping.

Efficient and functional laptop cases are generally manufactured with many compartments and pockets for storing necessary cords and accessories. There should be enough storage space to carry your power adapter, a portable keyboard and mouse, any external hard drive and your flash memory. Having additional storage space can be handy for files, documents, business cards, mobile phone and MP3 player.

Some laptop cases are manufactured with padding that adds a higher level of protection against shocks and drops. Many of these cases are constructed out of aluminum, metal, wood, plastic and leather. You can also purchase a laptop case with a shoulder strap or wheels for rolling, to make it easier to move around.

It is important when searching for a waterproof carrying case that you consider the weight of the case when it is empty. If your computer is 12 to 13 inches wide, it may not be necessary to purchase a laptop case weighing more, which can accommodate a 17 to 20 inch notebook. If you know you are going to be taking it through airports and on planes, it might be wise to purchase one that has wheels and a handle.

If you carry important and sensitive paperwork, or other valuable items, you might consider purchasing a high-quality laptop carrying case manufactured with a locking device. Generally you can either get carrying cases with locks that require a key or a combination to unlock the case. Some are designed to easily store valuable items such as your cosmetics, jewelry, firearms or a camera, inside your lap top carrying case.

Certain laptop carrying cases come with removable dividers and specialized foam padding to allow for a variety of storage setups, to create a multi-purpose unit. Some carrying cases can be special ordered with foam padding specially formed to hold specific computers. This allows the laptop to be locked in place with foam, deterring it from moving around inside the unit.

Once you have decided to purchase either a large or slim styled laptop case, consider if you need it to be equipped with a shoulder strap, a lock, handles with rollers or waterproofing. Next, consider how much it weighs without all the things you will be storing inside the case. Finally, seek out the highest quality most lightweight laptop case manufactured in the material you desire. Purchasing a high-quality case will last longer over time and protect your computer from harm.
