Apple Power Macintosh 8100 Hard Drive
Hard disk drives are made in many different capacities and connection types. Due to the sensitive nature of the drives, they can fail at any time for a wide variety of reasons. Your computer has a hard drive which is in charge of storing your pictures and all the other data in order for the computer to run. Installing a hard drive can be a simple task if you know the steps to take, obviously. The type of hard drive to purchase all depends on the connection inside your particlular computer. The size of the hdd is quite simply a personal preference as most computers will be able to accommodate any size hard drive you install.
Major clues your hard drive is dead
- It may take forever to begin loading and may not ever fully boot
- The desktop shuts down when you use certain files
- On some old hard drives you may hear a distinct clicking sound coming from within the computer
- Your system stutters or acts crazy off and on through the day
- The Apple desktop shuts down at seemingly random times while in use
