Dell Inspiron 3138 Hard Drive
HDDs come in varying physical sizes and connection types. Because hard drives are sensitive pieces of hardware, they will fail you whenever they want for any reason! Your computer contains a hdd, or hard disk drive, that stores all of the data for the computer. Replacing a hard drive is pretty straight forward if you have an idea of what you are doing, of course! The hard drive type to buy all depends on the connection inside your particlular computer. The capacity size of the hdd is simply a personal choice as almost all computers can accept any sized drive.
What are some indications that my all-important hard drive has gone bad?
- The computer crashes randomly while using it
- Your laptop is jerky or is slow to respond randomly throughout the day
- The system may hesitate to boot up and may never boot all the way
- Your Dell may crash when you open certain files
- On some older computers you can hear a ticking sound coming from within the computer
