Hi all,
Lately I've begun noticing some strange data issues with my 2 hard drives. When copying files off a server or a portable hard drive, often the files become corrupt when they hit either of my internal hard drives (Seagate Barracuda 1tb and a WD 1tb green). It often takes a couple tries before the sfv's show a valid match in the files.
I also often observe when mounting some installation iso's such as my MSDN Microsoft Office, the installshield will say "file <xyz> is corrupt" even though the sfvs indicate that the file is not corrupt". I know for certain that these installation ISO's are not corrupt as they install perfectly fine on another computer.
My first guess is that both my hard drives from 2009 are probably failing and need a replacement but does anybody know of a good way to confirm that this is the issue or if there is a way to fix this problem?.
I suppose if there is no way around this, it may be a good time to get an SSD
Thanks in advance!.
