So like the title suggests I've been having a problem with my hard drive lately. It's really slow, and it makes my system practically unusable.
At first I thought that my Windows got bloated so I made a fresh install but it did not help. I ran a memtest and it came out fine, then I checked the hdd with HDtune. While it did not show any errors or any bad sectors, the graphs look retarded to me and I don't really know what to think about them.
I also ran all possible malware/virus scans. No alerts whatsoever.
So, is it dying? I think so, but I'm not sure.
My specs:
FX 6300
8gb ram ddr3
GeForce 650TI Boost
OCZ 500w
WD Caviar Blue 1tb
EDIT:
I forgot to add: the fresh installation of windows was REALLY slow, usually it would take like 5 to 10 minutes maximum, this time it was more than an hour
