I just wanted to see what others thought. As of late the past 3 weeks or so, my torrents are randomly getting I/O write errors unless I save them to an external drive, windows explorer routinely crashes and restarts, and I'm getting an increased amount of random BSOD's depending on what I'm doing.
I re-installed Windows 7 64 bit thinking maybe it was an OS issue, but it's persisted. I'm thinking my laptop HDD is going the wayside. Since HDD's are relatively cheap to replace, I have no objections to doing so, but figured I'd field any other suggestions before doing so.
It's an ASUS laptop, and not a cheap one either. At a year and a half old, I'm a tad surprised I'm running into this.
Edit - last BSOD was on ntfs.sys but I failed to get the 0x0 written down before I just rebooted the damn thing. Ironically, if I try to access the Windows\Minidump folder explorer crashes and restarts.
