- 드라이브를 다른 SATA 포트에 연결하거나 다른 케이블을 사용해 보세요.
- 느린 성능:
- Ensure your operating system is optimized (e.g., defragmentation for HDDs, sufficient free space).
- 디스크 리소스를 소모하는 백그라운드 프로세스를 확인합니다.
- Monitor drive temperature to rule out overheating.
- 특이한 소음:
Clicking, grinding, or repetitive noises can indicate a potential hardware failure. Immediately back up any critical data and consider replacing the drive.
