Hi, thanks in advance for your help
I'm not really tech smart as far as the inner workings of computers, so apologies for my use of descriptions instead of official names where I'm not fully confident on certain areas.
My laptop has 2 inbuilt drives, a smaller C drive (250GB) and a larger D drive (1TB). When transferring between these two drives, it acts like an external drive transfer (takes time etc), hopefully that helps with the understanding of the types of drives.
Currently my D drive is extremely slow when accessing files, and some of them are only partially accessable (videos play but the file can't be moved to C drive, for example). This D drive also contains my game installations and as such, they're also slow and crash quite often.
I've completed a disc cleanup, a defrag of both drives and a virus scan. As I want to preserve the files and I'm worried about losing them, I've been uploading as many as possible to my OneDrive, though some of them have the aformentioned issue of bringing up errors when attempting to move them.
I've included screenshots of info that may be of use, I'm sorry if anything is missing or any of this is irrelevant. My main focus here is trying to save the files, with a secondary focus on trying to save the laptop. I'm purchasing a new PC this week.
My laptop is a Novatech Nspire, bought in 2014. It's held up reasonably well until the 2nd to last Call of Duty: Warzone patch, when my D drive vanished. I restarted the laptop and everything came back. On the most recent patch for that same game, the same issue happened where my D drive disappeared. I restarted and it still wasn't there, I restarted again and it came back, however with these new issues. It could be a coincidence, however I've never experienced this issue in 8 years of owning this laptop, except immediately following the patching of this game. Do you think it's related?
Thank you so much for your help
