found about this app recently and decided to install it. Not sure what this means but I'm worried because its the SSD my OS is installed on. (all my files are already backed up to backblaze)

EDIT: turns out its my old external hard drive with issues not my ssd. All good! thanks for the help!

First of all, that’s an HDD because SSDs don’t usually rotate at 5400rpm. Your system SSD is probably drive C, not drive D.

Second of all, you should probably replace the HDD or at least don’t use it to store stuff you couldn’t stand to lose.

Haha it'd be cool to see an SSD spinning at that speed XD
