I have a problem with 2 HDDs.
The first one is full of bad sectors,... Regeneration pending... Yet so far 12k bad sectors.
[320GB Western Digital] I've got only 79GB free out of 320GB.The problem is, I cannot install any OS in it.[Hardware error, CHECK the image; And the red LED keep turned on]
Sometimes I get CRC error. Actually When I do move / copy a file larger than 1GB it happens.
Also, It's moving/copying speed is sightly reduced. [copy speed: 714Kbps]
Any solution how to fix / repair this damaged HDD?
And the second one, Takes too long to (let's say) run, under MiniXP[Hiren's boot CD].
When the windows Start up, It's impossible to open the disk, and it's partitions. Approximately 5-7minutes are required to do the action above. And when it finish, HDD disconnects (let's say) by itself and leaves only mirrors from the partitions. I am unable to execute any software while running the HDD [Samsung 80GB], like defragment, HDD reg, etc.
And I have to restore and move some of the written data.
Again, any solution for this one?
[sorry for my bad grammar, happens usually]
Thanks, ***.
