Is the hard drive dying?

Hello!
Windows XP SP2 is installed on the computer, it works quite stably. Recently, the system began to boot for a very long time (about 10 minutes is delayed at the stage after running the "slider" of Windows - that is, just a black screen on which the cursor is). I checked for viruses, neutralized it, checked autoload - it seems nothing more. I decided to check the hard drive using Viktoria and this is the picture we have.

Could such a long OS load be due to the presence of blocks with a long access time (given that the system itself as a whole works reasonably)?

Normal picture for an old hard drive. The disk is correct. Additionally, you can look at SMART

It is unlikely that this is a problem with the screw.

Make sure the disk has more than 30% free space and do a defrag first.

This Seagate, which you have from the previous generation, is down to "SS flies" and other funny glitches.
That number of green and orange blocks during the scan is most likely due to the fact that you scanned the disk firstly from under Windows, and secondly, I guess that you directly tested from under the Windows that boots from this screw. And this is wrong.

I send disks with such a bad surface straight to the trash. It's up to you, but brakes can be directly related to this. And yes, Victoria and other software should not be run from the same disk that you are testing. Boot from a livecd of some kind (like Hiren's).
Well, in SMART you need to look not at good / bad, but at exact numbers.

Didn't find what you were looking for?
