My laptop’s HDD is failing, it shows a bunch of signs such as slow file manipulation and clicking sounds. The Linux btrfs partition keeps going into read-only mode to prevent further damage, makes sense, but the windows partition is working fine (for now).

Shouldn’t harddrive failure be evident on all partitions?

    its a configuration thing… sounds like maybe linux has detected the SMART errors and acted accordingly on its managed partition. windows is not making the same choice.
