Dell Precision M40 Hard Drive
Because hard drives are sensitive pieces of hardware, they can go out whenever they want for any reason! Replacing a hard drive can be quite easy if you have ever replaced a hard drive before, of course! Your computer contains a hdd, or hard disk drive, that stores your pictures and all the other data for the computer. Hard drives are made in an array of physical sizes and brands. The type of hard drive to get depends on your computer. The storage size of the drive is quite simply a personal preference as most computers will be able to handle any capacity size.
Cues of a bad hard drive
- The computer shuts down randomly even while using it
- Your system halts or becomes unresponsive off and on through the day
- The operating system may get stuck trying to boot up and may only boot up once in a while
- With older hard drives you may occasionally hear a distinct clicking sound coming from within the computer
- Your Dell laptop shuts down when you use certain programs
