Compaq LTE 5380 Hard Drive
Your Compaq LTE 5380 has a hdd, or hard disk drive, which is responsible for holding the data in order for the computer to run. Replacing the drive can be a simple job if you have ever replaced a hard drive before, of course! Due to the sensitive nature of the drives, they will stop working whenever they want for a wide variety of reasons. Hard disk drives are made in many different storage capacities and types. The hard drive type to get all depends on the connection inside your computer. The actual storage size of the drive is quite simply a matter of choice as most computers will be able to accommodate any size hard drive you install.
