Samsumg R530 need help please

cheers mate, running it now, so far 7 errors found. hope it can do something

how can seatools repair a hard drive, what do i do when the scan is finished?

Take a look at this: SeaToolsforWindows_Warranty. Click on Seatools Sector Repair tools.

EDIT - Remember, there is a high possibility it wont be able to repair it but we can hope

seatool picked up 10 sector errors on the hard drive, any ideas on what else i could try

If you really want the things off it and don't have a back up, it might be time to take it to the professionals. They can take the disk apart in their clean rooms (DON'T DO IT YOURSELF) and repair it. If seatools can't fix it using the method in my previous post, the only way that has a high likelihood of you getting your data back is via the pros

i just realised that seagate didn`t run repairs and wasn`t given a code at the end of the scan, also had a smart trip warning as scan start?

You may be able to repair something by running it again but with 10 errors it is pretty messed up. Only a pro can help now.

For future reference, try monitoring your hdd's with this CrystalDiskInfo - Software - Crystal Dew World because it will worn you when it's about to die.

And remember, BACK UP!!!
