Hey guys,
So, Im going to take a shot at this and had some questions:
1. is this still the best set of instructions, and command to use?
2. am i able to boot from the external hard drive that i make this image to, or some change needs to occur before i do that? (i.e. linux filesystem to windows filesystem conversion, or some other requirement)
3. after i make this image (assuming it completes), what exactly am i going to do with R-studio to recover the bad sectors?
4. do i need to format the external harddrive in a certain way/format before i begin this?
5. I would like to do this from a failing SSHD (hybrid), to a external HDD using a USB cable. Is it still the same set of instructions?
6. A little off topic but, if i leave the bad drive installed for now, in UEFI can i stop it from getting mounted on boot?
7. Another Off topic question, before the failing SSHD diagnostics i copied over a 60GB directory from a an old PC. within that directory there were various subdirectories not showing correct file names/paths. could this large/old directory somehow have caused or resulted from the SSHD to go bad?
Thanks!
