Compaq 1600-XL255 Hard Drive
Your computer contains a hdd, or hard disk drive, which stores your pictures and all the other data in order for the computer to run. HDDs are made in varying sizes and types. Due to the sensitive nature of the drives, they can go out whenever they want for any reason! Swapping hard drives can be a simple job if you have an idea of what you are doing, obviously. The type of hard drive that you would need to purchase all depends on your particlular computer. The capacity size of the drive is all a matter of choice as most computers will be able to accommodate any size hard drive you install.
What red flags are there that my hard drive is on its last leg?
- The system may take forever to boot up and may never boot all the way
- The computer crashes without warning throughout the day
- On some older computers you may occasionally hear a tick, tick, tick sound coming from within the computer
- Your system freezes or is slow to respond at random times
- The laptop may crash when you use certain programs
