EDIT: problem solved, I did a hdd test looks like it is fine in lifespan to write large files

A hard drive can fail at ANY time. The probabilities increase as the power-on hours increase. 5 years is the typically quoted inflection point.
If these 90GB files are important, then you shoul have multiple copies on multiple physical devices.
