Hard drive failure?

Locked

Hello, as of recent, my hard drive has made a slight screeching sound for about 5 to 10 seconds when starting up a specific program (MTG arena in this case). It doesn’t seem to do it on any other programs and goes away rather quickly. I ran a chkdsk and received no reports or indicators of bad sectors or failure. Curious as to what this is and what i should be doing about it? Thanks a bunch

To be sure you are ready for a total failure. I know many that don’t take such as the sign to get ready then try to test and find out when the first step is to … backup or copy out what they can’t lose.

-> Now that I’ve written that, can you supply a Web SPECCY REPORT? I can check out the smart values and see if there’s the other signs.
