Hello, as you may have seen in the title, the hard drive indicator on my tower has been flashing red for a while, but today the light is steady red and my PC is freezing for a few seconds every 2 minutes. There are no viruses in sight after several scans. I am available if you need my configuration or any other information. Thank you for your response.

    Hmm okay, another hypothesis that would freeze my PC and the red LED at the same time?

        Your version of Windows 10 is significantly outdated; it should be at version 1909 instead of your current version 1809, which dates back to November 2018. Update Windows 10 with this Microsoft tool.

    So, the update has been done, but the problem persists with the warning light still blinking and freezing when it gets stuck.

    Good evening,
    Unfortunately, I don't have an answer for you, however, you say that the light on your SSD was flashing red?
    Because my SSD is flashing red, but I don't know if this is normal, thank you for your response.
