My 1TB HHD drive is apparently dying (see attachment). Its part of the fusion drive. I plan to swap it with an SSD drive soon. However, I have been having trouble with Safari on this iMac lately and wonder if it relates to the dying HDD. Safari will basically not even open any more. Will replacing the HDD with a new SSD resolve the Safari problem?

Update to Safari 15.4. If you can’t from System Preferences – Software Update, here is direct link for the update package.

Code:

Using Safari 14 is unsafe https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201222
