Guyz , I have been using Toshiba's MK5061GSYN Hard Drive Since Last three years in my Dv6 Pavilion Notebook ...Now after checking the results with HD Tune Pro, There are Reallocated Sector Counts marked in red , which shows there is some thing wrong with the hard drive...I have been noticing quite a few seconds delay in read and write performance of the laptop and every thing completes with a delay and it shows on the screen.....Sir I am attatching the screenshots and logs of HD Tune pro and please suggest .

@Amit Hablani, your drive has numerous bad sectors (648). I would backup your data and replace it.
