my harddrive is about 10 years old but runs pretty well(slow as hell) but after i did a massive defrag its seeking more than normal on boot i have 191 reallocated sectors and a damaged MFT should i carry on running with maintenance o put a new drive in? capacity 466gb rpm 5400 model unknown probably some toshiba peice of $hit
 
Solution
I wont recommend continuing its usage, considering its already a Decade old, the R/W head will probably fail not long after, since its doing a lot more seeking noises.

1 tb harddisk is pretty cheap nowadays, even 2/3 TB harddisk is very affordable
