Gateway M520 Hard Drive
Your Gateway M520 contains a hard drive which houses your important information and other data for the computer. Due to the sensitive nature of the drives, they have a unique ability to go out on you at any time for any reason! Installing a hard drive is an easy job if you know what you are doing, obviously. Hard disk drives come in different physical sizes and brands. The hard drive type to purchase depends on your laptop. The storage size of the hdd is quite simply a personal choice as just about any computer will be able to accommodate any size hard drive you install.
