Hi guys. I downloaded a program called HD Tune, but unfortunately I'm unsure what the results mean. I ran these tests on my two SeaGate Barracuda SATA HDs. I'm building a new computer and I'm trying to decide if these drives are still good enough to go into the new build.

This drive has my OS on it:

This drive is blank:

I appreciate anyone who can tell me what these results mean. Thanks.

Thanks, troy :) So is there a place online I could go that would help me understand what the results mean, like the transfer rates and access time?

I'm pretty sure Speedfan gives you the option of an in-depth, online analysis.
