I don’t know what is wrong with my NTFS harddrive.

Having a NTFS partition is what's wrong with your hard drive.

Can confirm, my NTFS hardrive broke every week on my server. Unfortunately that is my only hard drive so I cannot format it without loosing all the data.

What specifically do you mean by "broke"? File system corruption?

Yes, I have to use NTFSfix or plug it into a windows laptop, it is very annoying.

But my setup is fairly janky though. I use a external drive on my homeserver as storage drive, and because of torrenting it is almost constantly on read/write. And I use a ubuntu LTS server, so it might not be the most friendly os to use with a NTFS drive. But there is no going back now.

Are you using the NTFS3 kernel module instead of the FUSE driver?

I am not really knowledgeable about OS and kernel, I just use the default for ubuntu 22.04 LTS.
