Not a very old notebook, is it still under any warranty.

Would suggest running both the short and long Seatools test on the SSHD, the long test can take many hours so is best left running overnight and before running any tests back up any important data that you need of the SSHD first, see How to use SeaTools for Windows info here from where you can also download Seatools.

I did all tests successfully, and pass them all. Nothing found. I did additional “Fix all”, successfully. I will wait 2-3 days for a problem/stop spinning. If nothing happend, we’re OK!
Isalready running ok about 12 hours without stops spinning. Thank you!
