Is my Hard disk failing?

I used to have Windows 10 in my Laptop prior. Out of nowhere the updates were not installing properly and the system always had a 100% disk usage problem due to which it was very very slow. I found on the internet that it was almost impossible to solve so i decided to transition to another OS. (Ive already tried scans like SFC, DISM, CHKDSK etc etc but no use)

Current Issue:

Ubuntu was fine for two days and i was happy but suddenly without notice i was having Read-only file system issues. And from yesterday i could not install any packages(i was trying to install Conda for python)

sudo apt-get update
Bus error

sudo apt install smartmontools
Bus error

Now my PC gives a "System Problem Detected" notification every now and then. This morning when I booted up my computer it asked me to perform "fsck" as usual and this is what it showed after:

I tried to download and install "GSMARTCONTROL" Sotware but it quits almost immediately and shows the following error:

Unable to install GSmartControl as download failed:
E:
Method http has died unexpectedly!

SMART Disk assessment self test:

I performed a SMART DISK ASSESSMENT and i don't know why but it works randomly. Initially it shows that the assessment is at 90.0% and "Disk is ok(53 bad sectors)" and then it fails and shows that "Self-test failed(read)"(above image)

Conclusion:

1. Is my disk failing?
2. Will the spare sectors be enough to repair this issue?

Solution 1:

The SMART test failed, which tells you that the disk is failing.

Your file system turning read-only is a failsafe that is generally associated with a failing drive.

You cannot repair a failing hard drive. You will need to replace it.

Luckily, you are still able to read the contents of the drive so you still have a chance to back up data, in case you are behind or deficient on your back up strategy. Because a failing hard drive will only get worse, you should take advantage of that opportunity.

Solution 2:

The drive may or may not be fine. Bad sectors are detected when read, but remapped when written. If a bad sector is never overwritten, it won't be remapped. If long-lived file system structures are contained within bad sectors, the drive will look like it's failing.

The easiest way to "fix" the drive is to backup all irreplaceable data and wipe it using the drive's built-in secure erase function. This will overwrite all sectors and remap bad sectors.

However, better to be safe than sorry. Replace the drive, preferably with an SSD.

Solution 3:

Back up your important files: photos, documents to a flash drive immediately.

Get a new drive twice the size you have now.
