slow in terms of what ??

Opening files, open browser. Most tasks are slower a bit. I don't know if my specs cause sluggish over time. My ssd is new but hdd is already 5 years ago. I don't know if I buy new hdd will it help. New hdd 4tb I read some software to run properly. I afraid don't know how to use

install new HDD neew special program to use?

defrag your current HDD and see if it is better.

clean up files on your SSD, run the clean up program to delete unnecessary junks and shadow copies of system restore/windows update. SSD will run slower when the capacity is almost maxed.

What's hdd smart? I thinking of buying new hdd because current hdd already 5 years. But don't know if my motherboard support new hdd sata speed. My ssd I got defrag sometimes. My hdd also getting very full Left 3-4%. But I read above 3tb 4tb hard drive need special software to run. Very confused

Sata is backwards compatible and will rum at slowest sata speed. Say your board only supports sata 2 but your hdd sata3, it will only run at sata 2 speed at best. Then again HDD won't be bottle necked by Sata bandwidth limitation. Before you spend any money I suggest.you find out what exactly is the problem first.

It is still a problem right now? Unless you are on a legacy BIOS and older version of Windows I suppose?

Some people can install their Windows 7 with MBR and there are still many motherboard using BIOS. /Gigabyte....
