Hello, I have a 10 year old WD 80GB SATA 1 Drive.
All Disk management tools I have used show the health of the drive to be very good.
I tested the Drive in:
1) Speedfan (Disk health: Very Good)
2) Speccy : Disk is OK.
3) Gnome Disks: Disk is OK.
The Disk has no reallocated sectors, all are "Good".
All SMART are "Good".
So, my question was, will it be safe to use this drive for pagefile/Linux swap, under Windows and Virtual boxx, VM Ware?
Basically, i want to use it yo reduce the load from my main Hard Drive.
