That harddrive is obviously about dead. Replace it SOON.

You didn't pay attention. Attempting to defrag is about the worst
thing you could do. You may well have lost everything on it.

Looks pretty clear to me.
Why the h*ll did you try to defrag, instead of trying to Save your data ?.

More fool you.

Stupid to defrag a drive whose health is dubious.

Post the Everest SMART report, that should
give more useful info on the health of the drive.

Backup what matters on that drive in case it does die.
