So I recently upgraded my PC completely, the only two things which remained the same were my Nvme ssd and my old HDD. I did put in a new 1tb SSD also for newer games. Currently however every game which i have on my HDD either loads extremely slowly about 20x slower than it used to or it just...

The WD Ultrastar DC HC520 / HGST He12 should have a transfer rate of 243MiB/sec. This is true for the first two TBs, but than it degrades to only 50% in the center of the drive. Used the following script to run 5 cycles. For each cycle measured the transfer rate at each start of a TB...

I bought a Seagate Barracuda from an online shop and had a few problems with it (nothing to do with OC at all). The problems SEEM to have gone away, but what happened really made me nervous and I'm thinking of sending it back anyway? I wonder what you guys would do? When I first hooked it up...
