Acer Aspire 5338 Hard Drive
Your Acer Aspire 5338 contains a hdd, or hard disk drive, which holds the operating system and all other info in order for the computer to run. Replacing the drive can be a simple job if you know what you are doing, obviously. Due to the sensitive nature of the drives, they will fail you at any time for a wide variety of reasons. Hard drives come in an array of physical sizes and types. The hard drive type to buy depends on your Acer laptop. The storage size of the hard drive is quite simply a personal preference as almost all computers will be able to accommodate any size hard drive you install.
