Dying HDD?

My system has 3 drives:

 

  • Boot SSD drive with OS and a few games.

 

  • And two HDD with bulkstorage.

 

My HDD:s are about 8 years old, the last month or so bluesceens started accuring.

Can the HDD:s be the problem even if my OS is on a new SSD?

 

If i need to replace the HDD:s is it just to wipe it and then replace with new ones, without messing with the SSD and OS?

 

 

P.S

 

I´ve downloaded a Bluescreen Viewer and it says 0 crashes has accured...
