Dell Dimension 5000 Hard Drive
Hard drives can come in varying sizes and types. Your Dell Dimension 5000 has a hard drive which holds every single piece of information in order for the computer to run. Due to the sensitive nature of the drives, they will fail you at any time for any number of reasons! Installing a hard drive is pretty straight forward if you have ever replaced a hard drive before, obviously. The type of hard drive to get really depends on the Dell desktop. The actual storage size of the hdd is all a matter of choice as just about any computer can handle any size drive.
Main clues the primary hard drive will eventually need to be replaced
- Your Dell shuts down when you open a particular file
- Your system hesitates or becomes unresponsive randomly throughout the day
- On some old hard drives you may occasionally hear a ticking sound coming from within the computer
- The Dell desktop may crash suddenly at random times even while using it
- The operating system may get stuck trying to boot up and may never boot all the way
