Dell OptiPlex 780 Hard Drive
Your Dell OptiPlex 780 contains a hdd, or hard disk drive, which contains a plethora of data that the computer needs. Due to the fact that hard drives are delicate pieces of hardware, they can fail at any time for a wide variety of reasons. Hard disk drives are designed in an array of physical sizes and connection types. Replacing your main hdd is pretty straight forward if you have an idea of what you are doing, obviously. The type of hard drive to get all depends on the connection inside your Dell desktop. The storage capacity of the hard drive is all a matter of choice as almost all computers will be able to accommodate any size hard drive you install.
Signs the HDD will die soon
- The Dell desktop may shut down randomly even while using it
- On some older computers you can hear a tick, tick, tick sound coming from within the computer
- The operating system may take forever to load and may only boot up once in a while
- Your desktop halts or is slow to respond randomly throughout the day
- Your Dell desktop freezes when you open a particular file
