Sony PCG-NV170 Hard Drive
Hard drives are manufactured in an array of storage capacities and connection types. Your Sony PCG-NV170 has a hdd, or hard disk drive, which contains your pictures and all the other data for the computer. Due to the sensitive nature of the drives, they will fail you whenever they want for a wide variety of reasons. Installing a hard drive is pretty straight forward if you have an idea of what you are doing, obviously. The type of hard drive that you would need to purchase really depends on the Sony laptop. The storage size of the hard drive is all a matter of choice as just about any computer can handle any size drive.
What to see if the HDD is not working right?
- Your system stops or is slow to respond off and on through the day
- The operating system may hesitate to start and may not ever fully boot
- The computer may shut down randomly while in use
- With older hard drives you could possible hear a tick, tick, tick sound coming from within the computer
- Your Sony laptop freezes when you open a particular file
