    Do you know how to take a screen capture of this to post here, if so do so ? Looks as you had bad sectors on this drive that were relocated meaning will not be used, why said use chkdsk to also check this and try any repairs needed.

    Airflow could mean heat related issues inside case causing Hard drive to get to warm or all of this can be cause of a hard drive again failing soon. Need to see the counts on it first, bad sectors hard drive can last longer, but need to then keep an eye on it and backup all important files now.

    Ever open the PC case and clean dust out with canned air ? Good thing to do monthly. Dust can damage electronics and fans inside the case over time with too much buildup and cause overheating.

    Truthfully would not take my chances waiting on this drive to completely go. Backup what is important if you can and purchase another Hard Drive, unless you have a spare one you can try on this system. Download free version of HWMonitor like to see rest of systems temps, post a screen shot.Make sure no other heat issues.

    Thinking this was a good part of your cause of the hang up on boot, hard drive now that we see some info. How was or did you ever do a chkdsk ? Well using another Hard Drive would mean reinstalling Windows again, if was activated already should be no issues and then would be a clean install of Win 10. Using these older HDD as a test was a suggestion as not sure conditions of those older drives are like then . Had you run Seatools from seagate ?

    Temps are not bad in HWMonitor even for the hard drive at 44c could be bit cooler. Others temps seem o.k.
    This is a warning and that number seems high for reallocated sectors, even worse for airflow as you see.
    Just would not go too long with that drive is all i meant.

    Another way to check SMART data without software, see if it works and shows different
    Although not going to give you information like a software would, just o.k. or not

    open the (Admin) Command Prompt window

    In the Command Prompt window, copy and paste the following commands, pressing Enter after each:

    wmic

    diskdrive get status

    Get a solid state drive instead of a mechanical hard drive, you will thank yourself later.

    I recommend a Samsung 850 EVO 120 or 250 GB.
