Sony VGN-AR170 Hard Drive
Your Sony VGN-AR170 has a hard drive which contains all of the data that the computer needs. Putting in a new hard drive can be easy if you know what you are doing, obviously. Due to the fact that hard drives are delicate pieces of hardware, they will fail you whenever they want for any reason! Hard drives can come in different physical sizes and connection types. The type of hard drive that you would need to buy all depends on the connection inside your computer. The storage capacity of the drive is all a personal choice as this computer can accept any sized drive.
Major clues your hard drive needs replacing
- With older hard drives you can hear a distinct clicking sound coming from within the computer
- Your system hesitates or is slow to respond at random times
- Your Sony shuts down when you open certain files
- The computer may shut down at seemingly random times while using it
- The system may take forever to load and may not ever fully boot
