Today, I shook my desk a lot while my PC was running. I read online that this causes the hard drive to fail quickly. Is this true, and if so, how can I find out if something is broken? (Or would the hard drive no longer be recognized immediately, or could the problem only occur after some time?)

Loading...Today, a shrill noise came from my PC when I started a game, and the FPS also dropped. I've noticed sound issues before. After a restart, everything went back to normal. Since I don't want to break anything, I'm wondering if anyone has experienced this and might know what to do next.
I'm having a problem trying to change my C drive from MBR to GPT, but I can't because I wanted to back up the data first using a system image. This happens when I select the hard drive, and why is it always E? My games and programs drive is also automatically selected and grayed…
Hello, I wanted to play NTW again today. But now when I start the game, it won't open. It's only in the Task Manager, and I can't close it there either. I've already restarted my PC, but it doesn't work. What can I do?
Good morning dear community, I need help with the following case: There are two PCs. Let's call them A and B. PC A runs an Ubuntu server. PC B (running ChromeOS Flex, thus offering limited capabilities) is located in another room; this PC has a USB webcam connected to it. I would now like to…
I changed the cartridge in my old HP printer today (original cartridge). Since then, the printout has been extremely pale; before that, everything was normal. What can I do?
Hello. Unfortunately, I was banned (permanently) from GTA 5 with my Steam account and the linked Social Club account. My question now is: Can I simply create a new account on Social Club and then link it to my Steam account? Or do I have to buy the game again? If I have to repurchase…
If a hard drive is shaken during reading or writing, there is a risk that sectors become unusable – in extreme cases the whole hard drive.
An SSD is considerably more robust in this respect.
Whether your hard drive already has damage, you can find a suitable tool like “CrystalDiscInfo”.
On the one hand, you usually do not completely break the plate.
Evtl, you don’t notice anything about defects.
Yeah, you hit or crash can break something. But not by shaking
I used to throw my PC around and the HDD has remained completely, I guess she’ll have survived. HDDs are not so sensitive.
When the head hits the plate already
How probable is it that happens when you’re shaking? This would have to be done with a vibrating plate
