If you have a dell desktop and you want to replace the hard drive, you can easily do so. It is the same procedure as with all hard drives in desktops. I was recently talking to some one new with computers and they didn’t think they could change the hard drive as they had a dell system. I have changed hard drives on many Dell systems and they work fine.
I recommend getting a Maxtor or a western digital you can find some information on these through out my site and on my below buying guides.
If you are after a Dell drive for your computer system, you can get some excellent deals at TigerDirect and Dell. I have looked around and found many excellent deals at these places for dell hard drives.
Remember to look for a storage capacity of 40 gig or more. With today’s Internet connections you will likely want to start downloading many files for your computer.
