Identifying installed drives
Your computer includes a hard drive (with a rotating disc) or a solid-state drive (SSD) with solid-state
memory. Because an SSD has no moving parts, it generates less heat than a hard drive. To view the
drives installed on the computer, select Start > My Computer.
Handling drives
Drives are fragile computer components that must be handled with care. Refer to the following cautions
before handling drives. Additional cautions are included with the procedures to which they apply.
