Is my hdd failing

[kdashtipour]

So pretty much i have my computer for 4 years now only having to change my hdd once which i changed about 6 months ago my computer would just go into recovery mode.

So recently i wanted to know if my old hdd is actually not working or if its repairable maybe its just needed a wipe so when i plug my hdd in i can hear it spinning (i assume) and after a little bit of playing around with it i figured it that it is getting warm when i touch it but the problem is that no software is detecting it when i go into my bios i can SOMETIMES see it but the sea-gate program is only detecting my WD HDD and disk management isn't detecting it either.

PS : If you need more information just ask (its my first post so i don't know what else to add in)


CPU : Intel i5 3570k
Motherboard : Asrock Z68 Pro3 Gen3

Hi,

f you tested it on another port or computer and it behave the same, the hard drive is most likely failing and need to be replaced.

I've literally tried everything but know when i boot it up i get this

Windows failed to start a recent hardware or software change might be the cause.To fix the problem
1.insert your windows installation disc and restore your computer
2.choose your language settings, and then click "next"
3.click "repair your computer"

If you do not have the disc, contact your system administrator or computer manufacturer for assistance

Status 0xc000000f

i have tried to system restore but its not detecting the hdd
