Hello alt.comp.os.windows-10.

Does it hurts for a HDD to always be in vertical position?

I spend most time on laptop with SSD in vertical position (in bed), and
plan to eventually buy a laptop with HDD, but will it work? Or it is a
no-go?

Have anybody used hard drive for long time in this unnatural way?


DON'T BE SO SILLY

Since this is a Windows 10 group, it's probably
fair to point out, the new laptop should
also have an SSD. Windows 10 works
better with an SSD to compensate for
being "busy" right after boot time. The
zero seek time is the parameter of interest.
The mechanical shock-resistance is a secondary
feature.

This 128GB drive is big enough for Win10 with
room to spare, and is $53. SSDs don't have to be
too expensive. The 545S isn't the absolute best
you could buy (it stops responding at "End Of Life"),
but I picked one up to use for sneakernet-transfers.
It doesn't hide the fact that it uses TLC flash.
