Einleitung
A hard drive is the house of all applications on a computer, including Windows. Without one there would be almost no functionality to the device. It helps with or is used to download and use applications, save files, and almost everything else you’d do with your computer.
A hard drive can fail for a multitude of reasons: dropping the laptop, normal “wear and tear,” or even a manufacturing defect. Issues with a hard drive can be noticed by irregular noises, inability to access certain files, and less total storage than when you initially purchased the laptop.
Before you begin the process of replacing the HP Pavilion x360 m3-u101dx hard drive, refer to the troubleshooting page, hard drive section. This page will ensure that the hard drive needs replacing and not a different part. Ensure that the computer is turned completely off, and NOT plugged in when beginning.
