Very helpful. Always wondered how to fix bad sectors. New drives are so cheap now, however. For me would be much cheaper and easier just to replace. I really appreciate your videos. Your insights are invaluable. Thanks, Brian.

Bad sectors, the beginning of the end of a hd, had a few bootlisting errors ( double dir and program names) a few times and that was game over very soon.

What is the difference from using this to running ChkDsk /F ? They both mark the bad sectors so what is the big difference?

Hi Brain after i enter dir everything comes up as usual, but when i type hdat2 says Bad command or file name.I cannot get any further what can i do ?

Is this any different than Hard Disk Sentinel surface test? If it is the same then my god how convenient HDSentinel is compared to whatever this is.

I suspect this is a Seagate/Samsung Momentus drive. They're known to develop bad sectors early on. Personally, I avoid them like the plague.

Think I have a bad sector, great timing!

Thanks Brian :-D
Rmprep has freedos as well, so it should work as well :-).
I used to use fdisk to repartition old drives and leave the bad sectors between partitions.
Took a bit of messing about though lol.

I have 900 bad sectors and may hdd health is 9, what should I do?

[Tallermage]

Yikes, my hard drive is in worse condition than I thought, i guess its finally time to invest in a new one

[memadmehmedov]

Open the hard drive cover gently. Then blow the dust carefully again. Put the lid back on. Because I have a hard drive it was 50% life but now it is 97%.
