Need utility for HDD's Bad Sectors?
Hello,
to all of you.
I have a 250GB HDD, this hdd has some partitions with bad sectors on it, actually, whenever I start copying the data from this hdd to some another
hdd then I get bad sectors error, When I check this hdd with Windows scandisk, so that scandisk can mark the bad sectors, then scandisk takes too
much time to mark these bad sectors, Now, I am finding some utility that can mark bad sectors of hdd fastly than scandisk.Please reply soon with some
utitlity name.Hope to see reply.Thank you for reading my post.

Re: Need utility for HDD's Bad Sectors?
bad sectors are a sort of physical damage on hdd... its not possible to recover it!! the only way is to send the hdd for hard recovery which is too costly....

Re: Need utility for HDD's Bad Sectors?
Hello,
to all of you.
Firstly, thank you for all the replies, I have tried MHDD, Vivard, and also tuneup, but these programs could not help.Anyways, I want to know, Is there any utility that can work on partition wise and can mark or fix bad sectors on some particular partition of the hard disk? Actually, I have some partitions on hdd out of them only some have bad sectors.Reply soon.Thank you for reading my post.

Re: Need utility for HDD's Bad Sectors?
Hello,
Regarding, "VIVARD" Whenever I try to install this program, it asks for the floppy drive, I use new Intel board, on which I dont have any floppy drive connector, so, its setup interupts. MHDD dont show any drive in their window, I think due to mine SATA drive.Anyways, If you have some other utility then let me know.Thank you for reading this post.
