So, I have a new pc that is less than a month old and I've been dealing with this disk events problems on windows 10. At first I was having freezing problems in some games that lasted for like 10-15 seconds but they would happen for like once in hour or two. So I decided to google it to see if there was someone with similar problems. And that's how I got to the event viewer and saw all of this warnings. Now, with this warnings there were a good number of bad block erorrs in the last 5, 6 days. And I see that this usually means that hard drive is going to die soon.

So yesterday, I decided to update my windows to see if that would help maybe. It did in some things. I did not get any bad block erorrs in the last 24 hours. In those 5 to 6 days there were like 30 erorrs a day if not more. For now, that is gone. Also, I did not get any warnings about disk event 129. But I'm getting a lot of disk event 153 warnings. More than before I think. Mostly just when playing games. When I'm browsing web, I rarely got any. And in games I'm getting more freezing periods, but not 10-15 seconds long like before. It just last for like second.

Is there any help for this or my hard drive is really dying already? My HDD is WD Blue 1tb WD10EZEX... Now I'm doing error scan with HD Tune

And this is what is usually on details in event viewer

hello, i have ryzen setup for about 2 years, had the same problem appeared like 2 month ago. Ive read so much forums about this problem, tried 30 different solutions but nothing helped me, except one thing - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gj4VDXdq03k&t=1s
You have to switch ahci power management to dimp, the error still occurs, but maybe 1 time a week. I have 2 drives in my setup, WD HDD and SSD with system on it, after the problem appeared i started to install any game on HDD only, because if the 153 shit happens again, it never affect the SSD and windows, only HDD, so i dont get any system freeze. So what you have to do in this situation, quit the game, put your computer in sleep mode for like 10 mins, or you can turn it off whatever (for 10 mins also) And after next launch the problem gone, you can start playing again.
So here are some things that ive noticed during this problem: When you use your PC on idle mode (browsing, watching videos etc) after the launch, no matter how long , the disk problem never appear
When you start any online game that you cant put on pause, for example WOW or overwatch(overwatch makes your pc work on high loads even in game menu), so you can also play these games forever and the problem will never appear until you exit the game, even if you launch the game again you will get freeze until you restart/sleep your pc for 10 mins. Also, if you have more than one drive, the problem will appear only on the one you were playing on.
But, if you start any single game that significantly decreases the load on your pc when you pause it, or open game inventory that imitates pause, you will get the disk error again :)
I couldnt play alien isolation because of that, i was getting disk errors after 30mins of playing, but after i switched ahci power management to DIMP, i played it 4 days without any error, i got the error on 5th day, but after a quick 10 mins reboot i played it for 3 days again without getting a single error. Sry for my bad english, i was using google translator to type all that, but you know all these translators are so bad,
hope this might help you!
