Hard Drive Issue

hello there !

 

since two days one of the partition in my drive is running very slow. I have a 1TB hdd on my laptop. There are two partitions. One of the partition is running as usual and another is very slow. The speed is about 300 kbps on the other drive. Whats wrong in here can any one suggest me ?

Well the hdd isn't helping you here, a ssd would be a big improvement.

 

What hdd do you have? Is the health good?

 

What are these partitions? 

 

300kbs can be normal on a hdd depending on the workload.

Hello Sambhav,

 

Do you have an operating system installed on each one of those partitions, meaning that your computer is dual-boot?

Why do you have multiple partitions? Use folders.

There was a problem in intel virtualization so, i did clean install of the operating system. Which wiped all of the raid drivers. After that i reinstalled the driver. Is this related with the issue ? Yes health is good

There is not a problem with reinstalling the RAID drivers. So, you are saying that you have two drives, one for storage and another with two partitions, right? The one with the two partitions is the one that has the operating system, right? And what is the second partition used for?
