Just replaced HDD that had some bad sectors with a new Hitachi 2TB HDD. I ran a benchmark test with Samsung Magician and SMART test looked normal except for temperature. Performance test score is lowest of my 3 HDD's and it's brand new. Should I be sending it back before too mach time goes by. http://

Thank you

Hey there, BR2000.

Why do you think that it's low? 160-170MB/s is perfectly normal for an HDD. You could run a different benchmark tool just to double-check, but it seems like the drive is in good health as well and everything seems normal. Have you experienced any issues?

Hope that helps. Please let me know if you have any questions.
