Are you running NTFS or FAT32... if FAT32, expect it to be slower... let me say expect it not not be as quick as a new os should... But the part about "disk drives all need checking" that is someething you definitely need to get to the bottom of.... possibly a corrupted sector on the HD.... Have you defragged the drive yet?
