Do I have a dead harddrive?

[Lennart van de Merwe]

Hi, I was playing Rainbow six siege when I just got stuck in the loading screen for multiple minutes, which is odd, considering my setup: ryzen 5 2600x, rtx 2060, 16 gb 3000 mhz corsair vengeance ram, 64 gb SSD boot drive, secondary 128 gb SSD, 1.5 TB HDD seagate 9VT16L-515. I went into task manager and closed the game, then I tried to reboot it and steam gave me an error and then crashed. I then tried to reboot steam (I think it's on the HDD as well) with no succes. I then tried to open Uplay, which did actually did open and then tried to reboot Six Siege. I clicked on the play button several times over the course of a few minutes with no response. I then opened Task Manager to find my D drive being 100% used by nothing and not transferring any data. Also, when I opened file explorer and clicked on my D drive it crashed the file explorer. 
So, I went for a reboot. That took several minutes to close down, but did start up again quite fast and I still have the same problem. I suspect mechanical failure of my D drive, what do you guys think.

TL;DR: My mechanical D drive isn't responding for no particular reason, is crashing application when trying to acces files on it and is stuck at 100% use in task manager without any reads or writes. I suspect mechanical failure, what do you guys think?

Edit: there aren't any funny noises coming from the drive btw

Download HDTune and check the drive health. https://www.hdtune.com

Do error scan to check for bad sector.

I second this. Also look at the S.M.A.R.T. data tab in HDtune.

I've downloaded it and get a read error as soon as I press start.

It has stopped being used 100% in task manager. In file explorer it is now accessible, but it shows no files, but it does claim to have around 700 gb of data stored on it.
I've tried to launch Rainbow Six Siege (which is still  installed if I am to believe steam) and it crashed after loading the things that  were stored on my C drive.

Edit: here's a picture of the error scan.

Try use different SATA and power cable, that kind of error scan only happen when your device is unplugged.

Figured that myself and it turned out that, presumably, my sata was either dusty -?- or had died. It's working now, but it still has a few red blocks. So, I'm back upping rn and I'm gonna buy a new HDD/massive SSD

Edit: forgot to say thank you, so, hereby officially, thank you.
