[lug] Addition to : Bad Sectors

[Gordon Golding]

Forgot to say, I moved this data disk from an old FC machine to a FC11 server.
So maybe I just didn't see the warning before.

Subject: Bad Sectors











 I have a disk drive (used for data)? that started giving "messages".



It happened right after the system drive filled up and crashed.



SMART test says:



Powered on 978 days

Current Pending Sector Count?? 10 sectors?? FAILING? Old-age

Uncorrectable Sector Count??????? 7 sectors?? N/A???????? Old-age



Questions:

1)? Could the fact the the system drive crashed in the middle of a BIG tar on this drive have something to do with it?

Should I try anything before believing this?



2)? This is a WD 320 - I thought these drives had big bad sector tables.

Is it time to just junk this unit?
