How fucked am I
what is that image?
should have bought an ssd bruh
Hard disk check, red square's are bad sectors
It's not bad, depending how old it is.
2 years old, and I keep getting a hard disk failure error every 10 minutes or so
welp, it's pretty bad then, seagate?
Samsung
Copy everything you especially want to keep and then everything else as well to another drive asap
alright, I'll do that once the scans done, but my only other drive is my PCs default drive, which is only 200 gigabytes, and it only has about 20 GBs of space left, also I heard you can fuck up drives by copying bad sectors into them, is that true?
Just make sure the irreplaceables are backed up. Tax docs, pictures, docs, keys, etc. Programs can be reinstalled.
Well none of my important stuff is on that drive, mostly just my games, which is redownloadable because steam, how long until it just completely stops working?
Between 10 minutes to never.
>still using hdd in 2018
unless that's a backup drive you have no excuse
get an SSD now
hard drives are cheap just get a new one
What? but I took that image a few hours ago, and everything seems fine, aside from the error that keeps popping up
I checked online, a 2TB hard drive goes for around $700 on Amazon and other places, have any recommendations?
There’s a reason Hackers call Samsung HDDs “SamSuck”
>2TB hard drive goes for around $700 on Amazon
uh what fucking country/planet are you from?
you will get boot up messages when shit really hits the fan. the last time i had an hdd with errors i got a message on start up about some SMART error with a warning that basically said back your shit up right fucking now. the drive lasted for another 13 days before it just blue screened on every start-up and i coudln't even format it anymore.
>hackers
Yeah I fucked up, that listing was for a whole computer that had a 2TB hard drive in it, not the hard drive itself
Are you posting from 8 years in the past?
no idea what that fucker has been smoking
a 2TB here is 60 something €uros
>I checked online, a 2TB hard drive goes for around $700 on Amazon and other places, have any recommendations
Which timeline m8?
there's no such thing as samsung hdds anymore, they sold the division to seagate 7 fucking years ago.
Well I did buy the hard drive used, since it was cheaper
People still use this? Holy shit.
Well then, so you're just stupid?
Yes, but that's besides the point, I'll just replace the hard drive, I just wanted to know if I could still get some use out of the current one before I had to buy a new one
>I did buy the hard drive used
Fill it with cp and send it back
Okay, I'm being a bit dishonest
I bought the whole PC used
I'm more fucked than you and I'm doing fine
Why the fuck are there page files everywhere
Why so many harddrives
Do you just never leave your PC on or something? Windows just takes care of all that shit automatically while you sleep. Haven't seen anything higher than 0% in years.
I never run it
Lots of movie and picture hoarding
By the way, before I get a new hard drive, I keep getting recommended to not use my computer until I've replaced it, but I still have my default 200 GB hard drive, can I just use that until I wait for my new one or should I just not use my PC at all, keep in mind that my current 2TB hard drive doesn't have anything important, hell not even porn, just my games
so schedule it for like 4am every wedneday or something. No fuss no muss.
>lol just b urself bro
Having the computer in the same room as where I sleep means it stops me from sleeping though...
My computer is never off and I sleep in the same room with it. It even has those obnoxious lights shining from inside the case. The soft blowing of the fans makes it easier to sleep desu.
wait ssds don't get fragmented do they?
Bad sectors are not the same thing as data fragmentation.
Oh, hey, me too. This one's mine
