Can you explain these errors?
About once a year i do physical testing on both my hard drives to check for bad sectors. My 7 year old drive is fine but my 4 year old drive had several bad sectors and other errors that i do not understand.
I was not expecting this drive to fail but i will be looking for a replacement (probably for both drives, the 7 year old one is old)
