Have you checked it's health? Looks like it could be dying.

 

Also is it just this download or is it like that with  everything?

Reallocated sectors count is the number of sectors on the HDD whose data had to be moved somewhere else because of an error. That means there is a fair number of sectors on the drive that are effectively dead. That's certainly not a good sign.

At the very least I would back up the data that is on it, so you don't lose stuff when it dies. Quite possible you'll have to replace it soon.

HDD's don't belong in laptops anymore. The movement and getting tossed in backpacks etc is not great. Go SSD, it's more $ but they tend to last longer in laptops.
