Yeah, noticed it 9efc77cf6bcf1ecc18652bf44071ab38.jpg

 

Why is data not being shown for my other hdd? could that also be in trouble?

Should I gamble on removing just that 500gigs hdd from the cpu and try booting the pc?

Would I loose data if I do so?

Like I said the culprit in this case is you HDD. Sometimes the sector might get corrupted. If it's in warranty exchange and get it replaced. Else buy new one.

Is that hard-drive older or newer than the 500GB hard-drive?

 

Do not power up the 500GB hard-drive (disconnect it from SATA / power connector).

 

No disconnecting the hard-drive does not lose data on this. Only if the physical platter is damaged or the controller of the same is damaged would you stand a risk of losing data.

 

I would suggest you look into backing up that data and get a replacement drive (through warranty or elsewise).

 

Hope this helps. Cheers!

The 1tb is newer. Purchased in 2014 if I am not wrong. Or maybe 2015. The 500gb dates back to some 6-7years back. So I ll just unplug the 500gb drive and try to boot and see if the pc is running normal right?

Both your Seagate drives seem to be in very poor shape, recover all important data off them and get replacement storage units.

Also I see that the older disk files are getting copied faster. But the newer ones are getting copied too slow.

 

This makes no sense.

 

Are you saying copying content from older to newer disk is faster or vice-versa?

The older hdd is performing good in terms of speed.

The newer one is super slow.

The hdd sentinal showed health of newer one to be zero with a red circle and X in it.

Both Seagate drives are on the verge of failure.

 

I would replace both of them.

 

The Western Digital hard-disk is doing well.

The wd is the external hdd. Wd elements.

Both seagate drives have gone past there warranty period.

Any suggestions on which one to buy? Which has a good life and warranty period.

2tb hdd

No need to guess prices as cpu don't attract huge tax so

R5 1400 - 12k

R5 1500x - 13k

R5 1600 - 15k

R5 1600X - 17k

Actually the official prices were already announced on 16th march.

R5 1400 -12.2k

R5 1500X - 13.8k

R5 1600 - 15.8k

R5 1600X - 18.2k

 

Do you think indian pricing is good? I think its slightly overpriced.I think the main selling point of Zen was its value for money versus Intel.With these prices tell me one good reason why any gamer would choose 1600/1600X when i5-6600k and 7600k are better choices for gaming?

Only R5 1400 is a good value.

Bhai, saare taxes bhee aap absorb kar lo na for the entire PC community of India.

 

Also, if you are so concerned about value, what is the cost of getting an unlocked Intel CPU + compatible board and all paraphernalia on Intel's side and AMD's side, compare that as well.

I got a msi 1060 6GB today . Installed it along with my old psu corsair vs 450 (just for testing till i get a new PSU) . Computer booted , run for about 4-5 minute before getting the message "The monitor is going to sleep , there is no input source" . I tried with a different Vs 450 which if fairly new (I got two of these ) and monitor refuses to display the window screen . Sometime it display for 3-4 sec (window 10 logo) and then goes to sleep , sometime it doesn't display anything at all .

 

Computer run fines without graphic card and with a different cable (VGA) . This problem also occured to my previous GPU amd 7850 . So what exactly is the problem ? Are both of my GPU dead , or some other component is messing with it .

Is your computer overheating? It could be that to protect the computer from damage it shuts down itself.

 

 

Another issue might be insufficient power supply. But that is far fetched. Because usually 500w is enough for gtx 1060 but also depends on cpu. Do you have old cpu?

yes i have intel i3 2100 . CPU temperature is fine . Just a few seconds ago , computer booted successfully till i shutdown . I suspect that my motherboard PCI-E slot is the cause .
