So basically, I have this HDD that I just replaced with Seagate a week ago. So since my main SSD was getting filled up, I transferred my games and movies to the SDD. I tried launching Fallout 4 from the HDD but it was loading very slowly in the initial loading screen, so I presumed something was wrong. I pressed ctrl+alt and switched to the task manager, I opened Disk 1(HDD) in the Performance tab. It showed 100% active time on my disk but the read and write speeds were both 0. I have included a few screenshots.
There are a couple things I tried to rectify this issue:
1) I ran chkdsk /b /f /v /scan d: (screenshot attached of results or go to here).
2) I downloaded HDTune and ran it's error scan (screenshot attached of results or go to
here and here and here
3) Then I proceeded on to test both my SSD and my HDD with another game (GTA V). It ran absolutely fine on the SDD but on the HDD it froze for one minute and while starting up it had 100% active time but 0 read/write here
Now I JUST got this HDD one week ago so it cannot have failed so fast. I do not understand whats wrong, I have an iBall PSU with PEAK WATTAGE as 500W so it is really bad and unreliable.
What should I do?
Current build:
CPU: AMD fx6300 base clock
GPU: SAPPHIRE AMD Radeon r7 250x 1 GDDR5 RAM
PSU: iBall PEAK 500W
Motherboard: Gigabyte ga-78lmt-usb3

HDD(secondary storage drive, the one that is not working and is mentioned in all the tests above): Seagate Barraccuda 1TB 7200RPM HDD
