Windows 10: Harddisk Performance

I want to ask how a hard disk will perform with reallocated sectors compared with 0 reallocated sectors if anyone knows, my hard disk has 1200 reallocated sectors and they have not been growing so my question in general is if the reallocated sectors may impact the read and write speed I'm curious because theoretically I understand that the reallocated sectors are no longer used by the hard disk so the harddisk should write data on a new surface so I don't understand why performance should reduce unless the reallocated sectors increase daily of which my hard disc i used formatting tool to write Zeros and ones to permanently erase everything beyond recovery so I'm certain start my hard disk is written data completely on a new surface or new sectors. Does anyone have another opinion about a hard disk reallocated sectors and performance-related issues

Problem in Browse Data from My Harddisk

Hi Nirav,

Thank you for posting your query in Microsoft Community.

I would suggest you to run the below steps and check if it helps.

Method 1: Hardware and Devices troubleshooter

The built-in Hardware and devices troubleshooter can detect and fix most of the errors and incorrect settings with devices. Refer to these steps to run this troubleshooter:

• 
  Press Windows key +X, select
  Control panel.
  
• 
  Change the view by option on the top right to
  Large icons.
  
• 
  Click on troubleshooting and click on the
  view all option on the left panel.
  
• 
  Run the Hardware and Devices troubleshooter.
  

Method 2: Run SFC scan

If the above steps didn’t help, then it is possible that the issue is caused due to some corrupt system files. I would suggest you to run the SFC scan and check. System File checker (SFC) scan is done to check if there are any corrupted system files
that could be causing this issue. Refer to these steps to perform a SFC scan:

• 
  Press Windows key + X, select Command prompt (Admin) to bring up
  elevated command prompt
  
• 
  In the command prompt type the following command:
  sfc/scannow and press enter
  
• 
  Now, restart the computer.
  

Try these steps and get back to us with the results. We’d be happy to help if you need any further assistance.
