I don't usually work with hard drives. My hard drive was making a weird long beeping noise and so I got worried and decided to check it out. I got CrystalDiskInfo and its saying that the health status is caution and its looking as "C6 Uncorrectable Sector Count" is the issue. Do I need a new hard drive or is there a way to fix this?

just in case, do backups of your files stored on that hard disk, i case it keeps doing that or starts to deteriorate further

one thing is sure, once you start to have doubts on a hard disk, you won't get peace of mind until you replace it

while you do that, you can run a checkdisk on it to see if it behaves normally again or not

reading the time working, it says 11696 hours, that is almost a 1 1/2 of a year working continuously!

do backups no matter what
