• Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.

Is it normal to get results that while testing jump up and down? or should it be steady (this is on a primary drive) with all background applications shut off
 
An example of a "normal" drive:

have you checked to make sure that anything and everything that might be accessing your HD was shut down?

I agree. It looks like something is accessing the hard drive during this test. If this is your OS drive, are you low on memory? It could be Windows paging to the drive. Sometimes, applications use services which may be accessing the drive, even if the application itself is not open. Was Windows Update running?
