How to identify the Hard Drive. In desktop computers it is inside the system unit and is a metal box measuring about 4 inches by 6 inches by 1 or 2 inches thick. It has a flat cable connecting into it and also a 4 wire power cable. It is normally mounted in a sort of cage near the front of the computer and fastened in by two screws on each side. The cage also holds the CD/DVD drives and any floppy disk drive. The CD drives will look a bit like the above description, but you should recognise those by the fact that they poke out of the front of the computer so that you can put CDs/DVDs in the tray. In a laptop computer the hard disk is smaller, typically nearly 3 inches wide by 4 inches long by half-inch thick. It has just one flat cable going into it, but this is typically built-into the structure of the laptop. Typical hard drives from the top.
