XPS8100 need to replace hard drive - looking for alternatives
Hi all,
I have an XPS8100. The 1TB HDD is diagnosed with error 2000-0142, i.e. fatal. This was a warranty replacement two years ago, and now it's dying already. Warranty is gone, so I'm looking for an off-the-shelf local replacement.
Will any 1TB SATA 7200 rpm HDD do the trick, or are there no-no's or favourites?
Thanks

Yes, my SATA 3.5" hard drive personal preferences are (1) Western Digital (2) Seagate.
Have you thought about installing an SSD drive, this would really help to improve the XPS 8100 performance?
