Compaq Presario CQ56 Hard Drive
Due to the delicate nature of a hard drive, they will stop working at any time for a wide variety of reasons. Putting in a new hard drive can be a simple task if you have an idea of what you are doing, obviously. Hard drives are made in different sizes and types. Your computer contains a hard drive which stores all of the data for the computer. The type of hard drive that you would need to purchase really depends on the computer. The size of the drive is all a personal choice as just about any computer can accept any sized drive.
What red flags are there that my main hard drive is almost dead?
- The computer may crash suddenly at seemingly random times while using it
- On some older computers you may hear a tick, tick, tick sound resonating from the computer
- The system may hesitate to boot up and may only boot up once in a while
- Your Compaq freezes when you open certain programs
- Your system freezes or becomes unresponsive randomly throughout the day
