Step 1
Choosing a hard drive for work purposes
If you are using a computer for business purposes, there is no need to set any special requirements here. Whether you are planning to develop a design or work with text information, you can purchase a hard drive with minimal specifications. The optimal hard drive for work will be a hard disk, the volume of which would be ~ 150 GB, and the spindle rotation speed would not exceed 5400 spindle revolutions per minute.
Step 2
Choosing a hard drive for entertainment purposes
If you plan to use your computer for entertainment purposes (watching video, playing games, audio, working with graphics), then you cannot get by with the characteristics that a hard drive requires to work. So that you can comfortably use your computer, the hard disk must have the following parameters. The memory capacity of the device should not be lower than the 250 GB mark. It is desirable that the spindle rotation speed be greater than or equal to 7,200 rpm. In this case, the computer will promptly respond to all user requests, providing a fairly fast mode of operation.
Step 3
The rest of the device's characteristics are not so important when choosing a hard drive. As for the interfaces of the hard drive, you need to pay attention to which interfaces of work the motherboard supports.
