Bad sectors on drive and random 100% disc usage spikes.

Kemeky · Oct 6, 2017

Randomly my disk usage will spike to 100% and freeze any program for the duration of the spike, which lasts about 3 minutes, and in HD tune it says this: http://prntscr.com/gu2azl how can I fix these sectors? If there is no possible way to fix it, could data be written on the unstable sectors causing the random freezing?

backup the data and replace the drive

maybe back up onto two external drives, just in case something goes wrong with a backup drive

MERGED QUESTION
Question from Kemeky : "How do I fix 100% disk usage spikes?"

My disk usage spikes up to 100% randomly and when I have task manager open when it happens, none of the programs spike up either.

My firewall prevents the viewing of that image URL (of the bad sectors), can you provide a brief description?

You should insert a new HDD or SSD into the PC and without any wories backup the data. Then put that old HDD out and get rid of it. Your disc is pribably too old.
