I've been experiencing some hang up on my system as of late and I wanted to figure out if my C drive was failing.Turns our the C drive seems okay, however, my D drive shows a caution sign as the health status. (I'll attach the info of both drives just in case)

Your HDD seems to have defective sector. The disk can still be used but more sectors will eventually go defect.

 

If you have very important files, time to do a back up

It's one of the signs that the drive is about to die. You should back up your data while you can still access it.

okay got it, don't have a lot of critical data there just steam, uplay and origin games. So is the drive gonna die in a week or month? I know you guys can't know for certain but how bad is 200 sectors for reference?

I have a blog! And a list of guides I've posted
