The Windows’ Disk Management shows a Healthy Status even the Drives are begining to fail. It is recommended to use the CrystalDiskInfo Software to continue monitoring the Status of the Harddrives – and replace them when the status is showing yellow “Caution”

For important data, always have a second backup. And if possible, set up a RAID 1 (Mirror) or other RAID levels (e.g. RAID 5) with fault tolerance. You can use Windows’ Storage Space/Sense to set up the RAID 1 easily.

The 5 year is roughly the normal life expectancy for a HDD.
