Restore an image onto a hard drive with bad sectors
I have a perfectly good image from a perfectly good hard drive. If I want to restore it onto a hard drive that has a couple bad blocks (either from physical damage or a manufacturing defect but is otherwise a perfectly working drive), will the image restore software (I'm using Macrium) avoid the bad sectors when performing the restore or does it simply do a sector by sector restore and will end up writing data to the unreadable sectors?
