Troubleshooting Hard Drives
Hard drive failures are fairly uncommon occurrences for computers overall, but in laptops they have a higher occurrence rate than in desktops. Usually, this occurs when something jars the laptop while the hard disk is working. Another cause of hard drive failure is an overheated hard drive. The hard drive, like other devices in the computer, requires adequate cooling to ensure proper operation. If the hard drive overheats, you need to check to see if the laptop is receiving adequate cooling. You can do this by making sure the air intake and fans are working properly and are not filled with dust.
硬盤故障在整個計算機上很少發生,但是在筆記本電腦中,它們的發生率要高於台式機。 通常,當硬盤工作時筆記本電腦受到震動時,會發生這種情況。 硬盤驅動器故障的另一個原因是硬盤驅動器過熱。 與計算機中的其他設備一樣,硬盤驅動器也需要充分冷卻以確保正常運行。 如果硬盤驅動器過熱,則需要檢查筆記本電腦是否受到足夠的冷卻。 您可以通過確保進氣口和風扇正常工作並且沒有灰塵的方式來執行此操作。
Mechanical failures and defects are another possible cause of hard drive failure in laptops and notebooks. Bad sectors in the hard disk, the motor’s failure to perform rotation, power supply issues, and many other issues can cause hard drive failures. An old hard disk may create problems, or mechanical failure can occur if you have formatted the hard disk too many times. Normally, you can hear a mechanical failure — there may be a clicking sound coming from the disk, or you will hear the disk fail to “spin up” when powered on.
機械故障和缺陷是筆記本電腦和筆記本電腦中硬盤驅動器出現故障的另一個可能原因。 硬盤中的壞扇區,電機無法旋轉,電源問題以及許多其他問題都可能導致硬盤驅動器故障。 舊的硬盤可能會造成問題,或者如果您對硬盤進行了過多的格式化,則可能會導致機械故障。 通常,您會聽到機械故障的聲音-磁盤可能會發出喀嗒聲,或者您會在通電後聽到磁槃無法“旋轉”的聲音。
Other issues with hard drives include data becoming corrupted or invalid due to virus infection or attacks, abnormal system shutdown, accidental cancellation of a running program, frequent power failure, and many other causes. These are not issues solely in laptops; these problems can occur with both laptop and desktop models.
硬盤驅動器的其他問題包括由於病毒感染或攻擊,異常的系統關閉,意外取消正在運行的程序,頻繁的電源故障以及許多其他原因而導致數據損壞或無效。 這些不僅僅是筆記本電腦的問題; 筆記本電腦和台式機型號都可能出現這些問題。
To determine if a laptop hard drive has failed, you must follow a logical troubleshooting methodology. First, attempt to boot up the computer. If you cannot see the display working, then listen for the hard disk. Did you hear it “spin up” when you powered on the machine? If not, it is likely a laptop power issue and not a hard drive issue. Check the battery and the AC adapter to ensure the laptop is receiving power.
要確定筆記本電腦硬盤驅動器是否發生故障,您必須遵循邏輯上的故障排除方法。 首先,嘗試啟動計算機。 如果看不到顯示屏,請收聽硬盤。 打開機器電源時,您是否聽到過它“旋轉”的聲音? 如果不是,則很可能是筆記本電腦電源問題,而不是硬盤驅動器問題。 檢查電池和交流適配器,以確保膝上型計算機已接通電源。
If the laptop display did turn on, then you need to see if the operating system boots. If it does not boot, it could be a data corruption issue or a hard drive failure. First, try booting the laptop from the AC adapter instead of the battery. Did that work? If so, it may be that the battery isn’t providing enough power to spin the hard drive properly. If that does not work, next, check the BIOS to see if the hard drive is being recognized. If the drive is not recognized in the BIOS, check the physical connections (power and data cables, like IDE/PATA and SATA). If the hard drive is recognized in the BIOS, but the operating system does not boot, it could be that the data on the drive has become corrupted; therefore, the operating system may need to be reinstalled and the user data may need to be restored from backup.
如果筆記本電腦的顯示屏確實打開了,那麼您需要查看操作系統是否啟動。 如果無法啟動,則可能是數據損壞問題或硬盤故障。 首先,嘗試從交流適配器而不是電池引導筆記本電腦。 那行嗎? 如果是這樣,則可能是電池電量不足,無法正確旋轉硬盤驅動器。 如果那不起作用,則接下來,檢查BIOS以查看硬盤驅動器是否被識別。 如果在BIOS中無法識別驅動器,請檢查物理連接(電源和數據電纜,例如IDE / PATA和SATA)。 如果在BIOS中識別到硬盤驅動器,但操作系統無法引導,則可能是驅動器上的數據已損壞;否則,可能是驅動器上的數據已損壞。 因此,可能需要重新安裝操作系統,並且可能需要從備份中還原用戶數據。
If the drive isn’t recognized by the BIOS or loading the operating system, you may have a hard drive failure. Listen to the hard drive; do you hear a mechanical clicking sound? If you do, your hard drive is likely failing and should be replaced as soon as possible. If you do not hear any clicking noises, there might be bad sectors on the disk, so perform disk maintenance procedures, such as “check disk” (CHKDSK) or “disk defragmentation” (DISK DEFRAG).
如果BIOS無法識別驅動器或無法加載操作系統,則可能是硬盤驅動器出現故障。 聽硬盤驅動器; 您聽到機械的喀噠聲嗎? 如果這樣做,您的硬盤驅動器可能會發生故障,應盡快更換。 如果沒有聽到任何咔嗒聲,則表明磁盤上可能存在壞扇區,因此請執行磁盤維護過程,例如“檢查磁盤”(CHKDSK)或“磁盤整理”(DISK DEFRAG)。
