Thought it would be interesting to see what sort of health results people are getting with their hard drives.

I think my HDDLife is knackered, though my PC has been on for 3 weeks straight so I'll reboot then try again!
Yup! Compared to my old Coolermaster 330 or whatever it was, this case is nice and quiet. I can't sleep when its silent outside anyway, so the hum of the case fans is quite soothing
Yeah, I'm strange, I'll just go back to my corner![]()
It might be, I upgrade before it all dies anyway so that's not really a,worry. Electricity bill might be though! (one advantage of living with parents!)
what is the 'Health' bit actually telling you ?
i only have a single 1TB sammy installed next to my Mushkin atm (pulled all my other drives to do some much needed housekeeping), and it tells me it's at 58% health![]()
I don't get it either. I wonder if it's looking at the odd spin retry or something. Crystal disk just says healthy for the drives, as does windows 7 in disk management. I do find it rather annoying though that they want £17 for a piece of software that as limited in use as this. I tried using a cracked version but wanted to try the most recent version to see if there was any change in the results.
