Dell Vostro 500 Hard Drive
Your Dell Vostro 500 has a hdd, or hard disk drive, which holds your important information and other data that the computer needs. HDDs come in varying physical sizes and types. Installing a hard drive is pretty straight forward if you know the steps to take, of course! Due to the fact that hard drives are delicate pieces of hardware, they can fail whenever they want for any number of reasons! The type of hard drive to buy really depends on the Dell laptop. The storage size of the drive is all a personal preference as most computers can handle any size drive.
How do you know if your Dell hard drive is about to fail?
- Your Dell freezes when you use certain files
- With older hard drives you could possible hear a tick, tick, tick sound coming from within the computer
- Your system halts or acts crazy at random times
- It may take forever to boot up and may only boot up once in a while
- The computer may shut down randomly even while using it
