I have had 2 hard drive failures on my "every day" laptop. The 100% disk utilization with little data being transferred should have been a clue. It wasn't the first time and I lost some data. The second time I was able to clone the drive before it failed completely and I lost no data.
I'm now running an SSD on that machine and the boot time is very much shorter than when the mechanical HDD were new.
