Hard drive crashed after a month and a half.

1TB hard drive is more than enough for it's use

Hard drive crashed after a month and a half.

I swapped the hard drive for a SSD and loaded Ubuntu 18.04

By the way Dell will repair or replace this unit in a whopping 12 days!Also the hard drive is extremely slow for this computer making this system barely tolerable with windows 10.

Looks like laptop would have to be disassembled to remove or replace battery or hard drive

I knew when I bought this laptop that I would be switching out for a bigger hard drive and doubling the RAM (due to being an amateur video editor)

When I check the hard drive, the raw value of reallocated sector count is 1217 and it is running with cracking noise

Laptop has no battery or hard drive door

If you don’t care about accessing the battery, hard drive or RAM, this is a very fine laptop
