last week i had major probs with my pc and put it down to my Maxtor h/drives getting too hot.
http://forums.overclockers.co.uk/showthread.php?t=17672058
Average temps are around 42.c for my boot drive and 45.c for my 2nd hard drive and that's just surfing the web.
i have a 2X diamond maxtor 6Y120M0 SATA h/drives ( 3years old )
using Drive Health h/drive proggy says that my bootdrive is going to go bust within 2 months(*ultra crc check*is -2) then it says it will go bust in 2019
(*ultra crc check*is ok).
my self built pc is 3 years old, with a Thermaltake Laser case, 1 side off,
intel 2.8 cpu
asus p4p 800 mobo.
nvidia 6800 agp card.
2x maxtor Diamond Max Sata drives.
1 gig generic ram.
question is Drive health prog says it needs more time to evaluate my h/drives, but what's ocuk experts verdict, get new hard drive/s asap or wait for another week so Drive health can work out the data on my hard drives ?
