Compaq Evo W8000 Hard Drive
Your Compaq Evo W8000 contains a hdd, or hard disk drive, that stores all of the data that the computer needs. Due to the delicate nature of a hard drive, they will stop working whenever they want for a wide variety of reasons. Hard disk drives are designed in varying physical sizes and types. Swapping hard drives can be easy if you know the steps to take, obviously. The hard drive type to purchase really depends on the Compaq desktop. The actual storage size of the drive is all a matter of choice as just about any computer can handle any size drive.
Hints of a failing HDD
- On some older computers you may occasionally hear a distinct clicking sound resonating from the computer
- The system may get stuck trying to begin loading and may only boot up once in a while
- Your desktop halts or is slow to respond at random times
- Your Compaq desktop shuts down when you open certain files
- The Compaq desktop may crash suddenly without warning throughout the day
