Posted May 19, 2015

I ran a hdd benchmark and got a weird drop in read speed. I poseted a screenshot from he benchmark,

The computer is on idle when the benchmark runs. Also I ran it a few times and wvwry time I get this drop ( simular size, same place ).

Is this something to worry about?

If you're worried about it, use a diagnostic tool like Seagate Seatools or WD Data Lifeguard and see if the HDD is going bad.
