Gateway iXtreme 5860 Hard Drive
HDDs are manufactured in an array of sizes and types. Installing a hard drive can be quite easy if you have ever replaced a hard drive before, obviously. Your computer has a hard drive that stores all of the information in order for the computer to run. Due to the sensitive nature of the drives, they will stop working whenever they want for a wide variety of reasons. The hard drive type to get really depends on the desktop. The capacity size of the hdd is simply a personal preference as just about any computer will be able to accommodate any size hard drive you install.
Key signs of a poorly performing main HDD
- The Gateway desktop shuts down randomly throughout the day
- Your system halts or is slow to respond off and on through the day
- On some old hard drives you may notice a distinct clicking sound resonating from the computer
- Your Gateway desktop shuts down when you use a particular program
- It may take forever to begin loading and may only boot up once in a while
