Hi Ollie,
A SMART event usually means the drive is on its way out.
You could run an Error-Checking on the drive (right-click the drive > Properties > Tools).
And d/l and use CrystalDiskInfo for a second opinion.
Also search the web for and d/l your particular drive manufacturer's (Western Digital?) error-checking tools.
Would be a good idea to back-up any files you want to keep, immediately.
Perhaps this thread could be moved by a Mod to the Storage Drives section, to increase the chances of getting better advice there.
