Hard Disk: Questions and where to buy? by Galaxyroyp(m): 12:22pm On Oct 08, 2021
Hello every computer experts reading this.

I have an HP15-bs0xx laptop which comes with a 1TB standard hard disk.

I have been using the PC for a couple years. The other day, I noticed it started running unusually slow, with few lags here and there.

Few days after, the laptop warns about an imminent hard disk failure whenever I boot it.

With these said, my questions are:

1. Can I upgrade the hard disk to an SSD drive? Would I find an SSD drive for that HP model? I am planning getting 500 GB SSD.

2. Do we have anyone here who knows how much such a hard drive costs?

3. Where can I buy a genuine hard drive.

Please this is urgent as I don't want to loose all the files on the hard disk before getting a new one. I need to transfer my files to a new hard disk.

Thank you for reading, and hey!, don't pass without leaving a comment.

Thanks once again.
