My friends pc seems to be loading really slowly in almost everything, the hdd we got from an old HP and its a 200gb 7200rpm samsung spinpoint sata 3gb. Ran HDTune and the read speeds on avg were like 25mbs and the max was 52mbs, my 1.5tb seagate 7200rpm sata3gb was near 100mbs avg and like 200max, and my wd blue 7200 500gb sata 6gb was a little faster, my drives are newer with barely 70days of run time on them where my friends is like 250 days. In Windows its always showing the loading sign and is slower than i think it should be, its not terribly fragmented. Would this just be because its an older drive? or something that can be fixed?
And if its just old would it be worth getting a ssd around 180gb and use the hdd as a storage or just go get a new wd 1tb as boot and storage?
