Acer TravelMate 290E Hard Drive
Your Acer TravelMate 290E contains a hard drive which stores a plethora of data for the computer. Swapping hard drives can be quite easy if you know what you are doing, of course! Due to the fact that hard drives are delicate pieces of hardware, they will fail you whenever they want for any number of reasons! HDDs are available in varying physical sizes and types. The type of hard drive to purchase really depends on the Acer laptop. The size of the hard drive is all a personal preference as just about any computer will be able to accommodate any size hard drive you install.
What are the clues to watch out for to know my primary hard drive really needs to be replaced?
- On some old hard drives you may hear a tick, tick, tick sound coming from within the computer
- The Acer laptop shuts down randomly throughout the day
- Your laptop is jerky or is slow to respond at random times
- The laptop freezes when you view certain files
- The system may take forever to boot up and may never boot all the way
