Lenovo ThinkCentre 6178 Hard Drive
Hard drives are made in an array of capacities and types. Due to the fact that hard drives are delicate pieces of hardware, they will fail you at any time for a wide variety of reasons. Your computer contains a hard drive which holds an incredible amount of information for the computer. Swapping hard drives is pretty straight forward if you have ever replaced a hard drive before, of course! The type of hard drive to get all depends on your particlular computer. The capacity size of the hdd is all a matter of choice as almost all computers can accept any sized drive.
What are the clues to watch out for to know my HDD really needs to be replaced?
- It may take forever to load and may only boot up once in a while
- The computer shuts down randomly throughout the day
- Your desktop stutters or becomes unresponsive off and on through the day
- On some old hard drives you may notice a tick, tick, tick sound resonating from the computer
- The desktop may crash when you open a particular file
