The Dell Inspiron 13 7359 2-in-1 is an excellent computer with a 500GB Hard Disk Drive. Consider replacing the HDD if
- You find that the HDD is making unusual noises
- The HDD is performing slowly.
- Your data is being corrupted.
- Your computer is giving you S.M.A.R.T. errors (Self-Monitoring, Analysis, and Reporting Technology). The S.M.A.R.T errors in particular mean your HDD might be failing soon, and that you need to backup your data or replace the HDD entirely.
You might also want to upgrade the actual capacity, so long as you know the replacement is compatible with the device. The HDD is not dangerous on its own, even if it's connected to a power source. Make sure to power off and disconnect the computer when you start taking your computer apart. You won't need more than the actual replacement HDD and a few tools to disassemble the computer, so follow this guide and keep your data intact.
