Hard Disk Drive (HDD):Hard plate is essentially a storage device that can store a very large amount of data and information, and give you quick access to them. It is otherwise called the principle storage media device of a computer system. All your data which are stored in the hard drive stay in it regardless of the fact that the system is turned off. Importance of Hard Disk The hard drive allows your computer system to start. Without a hard drive, a computer system cannot be booted up. Because of the hard drive, all your data and information are saved on your computer. All the functions and actions of your computer depend on its hard disk. Without a hard disk, your computer system cannot be worked or functioned at all. Now let’s discuss about crash or damage in a hard disk that makes it unable to be opened. Once in a while people get mistook for operating system crash and hard disk crash. Both are not same at all. There’s a contrast between them. Operating system crash happens because of logical failure whether you’re using Windows, Mac or Linux operating system. On the other hand, hard disk crash happens because of physical failure. In both these circumstances, your information can’t be accessed but available there in the hard disk. For more information, visit: http://wordpress.semnaitik.com/2014/06/19/fix-hard-disk-failure/

Until unless the genuine cause is resolved, neither boot your computer system nor reload the operating system.
