This guide will show you how to replace the hard drive from your Asus ROG FX60VM laptop.
The hard drive is a component that stores and retrieves data in your computer. If your hard drive is running low on storage or failing (making irregular noises or constantly crashing), it may be time to replace your hard drive.
However, before you start, make sure you've made a copy of your data so you don’t lose it while you’re doing the replacement. Also be sure to power off your device and unplug from the power outlet before you begin the repair.
