Should the Hard Drive Read Write Always Be Maxed
- #1
My PC is getting really deadening. I've narrowed it down to my hdd which is a 2tb seagate barracude. I've been using it for a while at present (must be about 4 years at present) and task master is showing information technology's read speed as from 10KB/s to 2MB/s max and it'due south write speed from 1KB/s to about 500KB/s. It's response time is pretty good though at around 200-300ms.
Ever since i upgraded to windows 10, i've noticed my deejay usage is constantly at 100%
I've defragged it recently and run a number of SMART tests which all show no problems.
When trying to update a game my cyberspace usage is really low aswell at no more than 300KB/southward whereas I'm used to 10-15MB/s. Ookla speed test shows my net speed is exactly that (15MB/s) if not higher... My pings fine besides.
It could just be a knackered difficult drive... I'm going to buy an ssd before long and reinstall windows onto that and have the hdd every bit a secondary drive anyway.

Any SSD volition make the boot and load times astounding. However, you'd be best suited to start over with the SSD as the boot drive and the 2TB every bit the Information/games/documents drive...

I'm sure it was faster before at performing tasks. It takes xx-30 seconds to open file explorer and even more to open chrome. I know hard drives can be dull only this can't be normal.
I'm just gonna modify the SATA cables and meet if that helps- give me a sec

I swapped the SATA cable to a different port on my motherboard and everything all of a sudden seems responsive...
task master is showing read write speeds have increased to 5-20MB/south 
Must've been something to do with the cables or the port? or peradventure the cablevision was slightly loose.
Oh well thank you for the aid anyhow

I'm gonna ask ane more question
When i purchase an ssd (was thinking a samsung 850 evo 120gb or 250 gb) will i be able to just plug that in and gear up it as my kick drive or exercise i accept to reinstall windows to boot off the ssd? The reason i inquire is because i don't want to take to reinstall everthing or backup my whole 1.5 tb of data.

And so, if under 75%, near new retail SSD's come with a coupon for a Cloning tool... Use it and so you practise not need to first over.
