My computer has all of a sudden slowed down to a crawl.
My hard drive now makes a patterned sound of 2 same sounds (sounds like reads, but it may be clicks) and 1 definite read sound.
So it’s like dut-dut-dat, dut-dut-dat over and over. Each combination takes about 1.5 seconds to complete.
Everything in the smart report is “green circle” with the exception of “Current Pending Errors Count” which has a yellow triangle.
Here is my smart report, I’m not too sure if I’m reading this correctly, so if anyone can help out, would be appreciated, thanks!
So… on with the report. It seems like nearly every line has the worst value possible and passes all the thresholds. So why is everything green except current pending errors count? My hard drive is dying huh?
