Ok so it`s kind of obvious that my HDD is slowly dying. I am just trying to be prepared here, when it will eventually kick the bucket. But if anyone could give me more info on what the info in the screenshots mean and perhaps based on that info, how long the HDD has left till it`s dead.

http:// Health

http:// Error Scan (long one)

http://

Would anybody be able to tell me what the third image means as well please?

Going to get a new SSD anyway, just thinking how long it can wait and so on.

Any help is appreciated, thank you.

HD Tune has found bad sectors on your HD. Your HD has already reallocated sectors to replace the faulty ones.
3rd image - how long is takes HD Tune to scan that particular sector. If this was a new HD I would worry about seeing all that red. Since you already know the HD is on it's way out it's just added confirmation.

Thank you very much. But how do you read the info on the first image.
I understand if its red, then thats the worst, but how could i read it so i could know that its really near death now.
Whats the threshold and the data to the right of there. And how do they compare to one another.
I have been trying to compare this info to other info on the net. But its to confusing that way.
