Hard disk?

Hello this is my hard drive in the laptop. I need a new one but don't know which one maybe you can help me. And my other question is if I have replaced the hard drive will my laptop be faster or what happens to my laptop

Only faster if you use an SSD. Otherwise you won't really feel anything about it, because the speed loss of an HDD has hardly existed over the years. It looks different with an ssd. But it is still many times faster than the HDD. Basically, you can use any hard drive that fits in with the size and connection.

So could I use a hard drive from Toshiba, Samsung, etc? And because of the ssd stupid question, is this one that looks like a memory card

Gu

Yes, it's sausage. And ssd. No. Unless you have a slot in your laptop for these ssd memory cards. I don't know the exact name at the moment. Just see how many inches it must have to fit in. And compare the connection that you don't have to buy such a "converter". The rest doesn't matter

Ti

Yes, I have it on my laptop so the memory card slot is for the SSD so that my pc runs faster

A hard drive slows down over time because it accumulates garbage that has to be reloaded into the main memory again and again, thus slowing down the system. The resulting fragmentation slows the system down again.

CCleaner (Freeware) can shovel garbage in GB from the hard drive even in the basic setting and a subsequent defragmentation can work wonders in terms of speed. LG. Lazarius

Yes, with a fresh hard drive he is something faster. But that also subsides a little when the operating system is littered or littered itself.

my personal opinion: you don't necessarily need that much storage space on such a device. Instead of a conventional hard drive, get an SSD, which is like a giant USB stick. 500 GB devices are very good for 70 euro.

this has two big advantages:

on the one hand, the thing is vibration travel-resistant. On the other hand, it needs less electricity. That means your battery will last even longer and you don't need to be scared that a careless bump will hit the plate over Jordan.

PS: and the box makes it faster too, because windows can access the information scattered across the drive better

only one thing don't like SSD at all! If you try to defragment it, the same bytes are always read and written, and you will die prematurely.

Why do you want to replace the hard drive, ST used to be Seagate probably 1TB? Seagate and Samsung are manufacturers that have a good name with me.

Ti

Unfortunately it is broken

Ti

Do I need a hard drive or can I use an SSD instead of a hard drive?

Si

How is the defect expressed and how did it happen?

lo

Exactly, instead of the normal hard drive, the SSD is used. It is almost as big that it fits into the bracket. Just not that thick.

Ti

My pc keeps going automatically aid had it checked by an IT specialist beforehand and unfortunately nobody knows how it broke

Ti

Ok then I just have to buy an SSD and I don't need the hard drive

Si

According to my assumption, the problem with the power management has overwritten the system image. I would ask someone with sufficient Linux knowledge to see whether data can still be saved and whether the hard drive can be used again after formatting.

Replacing the hard drive makes no sense until the other fault has been eliminated. This is similar to simply pulling out a stick, or if the battery is empty without a charge and the operating voltage in the laptop suddenly drops to 0.

Ti

Ok, so the problem would not be solved if I buy an SSD and use it

Ti

Because this hard drive is broken

Si

The problem is not the HDD but the voltage drop in the laptop. This error would have a very similar effect on an SSD

Ti

The problem is if I want to go to the boot menu and then click on the option, the pc goes off directly, or I turn it on and it goes off again

Suppose there's a problem with the AC adapter and charger. The battery is empty and the connection from the charger is unreliable, then your laptop will shut down as soon as one or the other connector does not have proper contact or the power management in the PC is defective.

What kind of laptop do you have and where are you at home?

Ti

I have an asus laptop, I don't know, I'm from Northeim, I don't know what the problem is, what I have in general, I can't write here that would be too long

Si

How old is the laptop and how old is it?

Ti

Laptop around 2014 or 2015

Ti

Was new

lo

I agree…

Ti

I just need someone who knows what to do because I can explain everything where my problem is

Look in your manual to see if it already has SATA III (600MB / sec).

Then your laptop could possibly use an SSD. A friend of mine switched, but with a desktop. Since then it has started up much faster. Have a look at Pollin's. Before ordering, however, find out how it works if the SSD does not fit and you want to send it back.
