Lenovo ThinkPad R51E Hard Drive
Your computer has a hard drive which is responsible for holding all of the data in order for the computer to run. Swapping hard drives can be quite easy if you have an idea of what you are doing, obviously. Hard drives can come in an array of capacities and connection types. Hard drives can be touchy and they will stop working whenever they want for any number of reasons! The hard drive type to buy really depends on the laptop. The actual storage size of the hdd is all a personal preference as almost all computers will be able to accommodate any size hard drive you install.
Key clues of a weakening hard drive
- On older computers you may notice a distinct clicking sound resonating from the computer
- The Lenovo laptop shuts down at random times even while using it
- Your Lenovo freezes when accessing a particular program
- The operating system may take forever to begin loading and may not ever fully boot
- Your system hesitates or is slow to respond randomly throughout the day
