Your drive is probably dying. You'll need to backup and replace.

A "cold" drive only describes the temperature. Not the state of the drive's function.

isn't there anyway to fix this problem without getting a new one

I do wonder if HD Tune is giving false information?

i hope so. i'm thinking of opening the hard drive for cleaning or something do you agree ?

No. The drive is not designed to be opened. It can be, but the screws MUST be put back EXACTLY the way they were or the drive will not function. I do not agree with HD Tune's information.

thanks for the assist bro. i think i'll make a backup just in case something happens and i'll continue using the drive until it's dead. thanks again
