Seems your model shipped with a Toshiba 750gb which by now could be end of life. You could run a few programs to test the drive <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/health-343799" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about HEALTH">HEALTH</a>. <br/><br/>Hard drive benchmark <a href="http://www.benchbench.com/">http://www.benchbench.com/</a> normal for your drive would be access speed 12ms I/Ops something around 100 and about 90 <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/mbps-557403" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about MBPS">MBPS</a> + for data transfer. The graph on the website is for a similar drive to yours. I think you will find the data transfer will be all over the range from as low as 20 to 180, if so then this would be one reason for the computer running slow. <br/><br/>Hard drive health <a href="https://crystalmark.info/en/download/">http://crystalmark.info/en/download/</a><br/>This will confirm if the drive is failing. <br/>If the drive is slow consider getting a 250GB SSD drive they are getting really cheap. You could either transfer the old drive or if the programs and data are not needed do a clean install.</p></body></html> | |
