QUOTE(vearn27 @ Mar 13 2008, 01:53 AM) Anyone here using the Seagate 500GB 7200.11 32MB SATA2 HDD? I been having numerous problem on it and been troubleshooting for the main culprit and no luck so far i am using one at the moment, no problem with it. I did change what AHCI or RAID thing. Always having disk read error... failed with paging the hdd... iastor error (AHCI & RAID only)... and ntfs error... now I'm reformatting and setting back to SATA IDE mode. Lets see what's next...   |

QUOTE(kernah @ Sep 6 2008, 06:29 PM) every piece of hdd.... no matter wat brand ... new one(juz came out from factory) or old one ... big or small capacity... 3.5'' or 2.5''.... wil hav certain amount of bad sectors... juz dat it is marked ( another word used is 'fixed' which i don like) to not being detected or being used so dat data written wil not corrupted. Some software claimed dat it is capable to recover or fix (again i don like diz word), but the fact behind it is still marking the bad cluster not fixing it, 'fix' is making a thing bec to normal n useable... really dont understand what you are trying to say. |
