I have a two months old 2TB Seagate Desktop SSHD.
I’m running this SSHD as a secondary drive (have an SSD running as boot), being a "backup" drive.
I've created two partitions with it:
- one with 1.5TB
- one with 300GB'ish
Suddently whenever requesting anything from that drive, the response time is VERY slow. At a point it was slow and next day alright again, however the last 4-5 days it has been consistantly slow.
I experience the following:
When clicking through folders and (usually) reaching some 2-3 inner folder index, the SSDH stops up and VERY slowly loads (with progress bar) before the folder renders
Writing to a file (like .txt, .php, .js /whatever) *saving work - takes 3-4 secs everytime saving
I have noticed that the drive would very often say some "tick" noises, like it was "thinking", even when nothing really would be happening on the computer.
Under "Joblist > Disc profiling - I don't see anything unusual pingin' out here (without knowing much about processes)
I have tried the following:
Right click on the drive and run for the disc for errors > nothing found
Under "Storage"/"Disk Management" under status it says "E: + D: > Status: Ok, primary partion" (whereas the C: says "Boot, Chrashdump, Primary partion")
Any suggestions on further "debugging" or things I could check or do before considering sending it back to the supplier?
any update? Have you tried my tip to prevent HDD sleep? – magicandre1981 – 2016-08-06T07:29:24.497
