Hi guys, I just found my 3.5 2TB WD blue has 46 bad sectors.
1. Should I worry about it ? get a new hard disk and replace current faulty one?
2. And how you guys dispose faulty hard disk ? sell it or just throw to dustbin?
3. Which brand to get for 2TB? I am leaning toward Toshiba P300 as it is cheaper than WD blue or Seagate Barracuda.

QUOTE(sHawTY @ Jun 22 2021, 05:05 PM) 1. Yes you should worry. Replace it immediately 2. Do a secure erase then throw it away. No one is going to buy faulty HDD. Not even for RM10 3. Go with Seagate Barracuda Pro. 5 year warranty, worth every penny. QUOTE(BOTAK_WAI @ Jun 22 2021, 06:29 PM) 2tb not worth…go 3tb for toshiba. P300 or V300 (lower rpm) thanks for the advice!
