HDD starting to fail. Need advice.
Hello. I got this "windows detected a hard disk problem" error yesterday for the first time. After reading up on it, I am pretty sure I am screwed. In a few days, weeks or months... My HDD will be failing.
What I need to ask... Is... How much time do you estimate? I think it's pretty hard to do, but who knows, maybe you know.
Here at the stats of my pc, etc. Screens of different programs I ran:
T5200 1.6Ghz
2GB RAM
Windows 7 Ultimate 32-bit
HDD SAMSUNG HM160HC
I think nothing else is needed....
What I should include, is that computer freezes pretty often for 1-5 seconds. It started like a couple of weeks ago, had no idea why, formatted, etc, problem continued.
Okay:
So... I have already saved my important files to an usb drive... But yeah, how much time do I have? :)
Thank you.
