Hi,
i try to run chkdsk /f on c: (about 650.000 files).
On one Sector it stops and Windows must be restarted.
S.M.A.R.T. is ok, no relocated Sectors. Disk is Western Digital 1 TB.
Maybe I need a Programm to read the whole Disk to realocate then defektive Sector...
better ideas?
Thanks
I tried to defrag the disk with O&O Defrag. This Programm runs a chkdsk that stops due the error
The disk check can be turned off in O&O defrag, but I would not use it. I tried it on w7 and it fouls it up badly.
Do as Golden suggested, it puts file where w7 needs them to be.
Run this: WD Support / Downloads / SATA & SAS / WD RE2
QUICK TEST - performs SMART drive quick self-test to gather and verify the Data Lifeguard information contained on the drive.
EXTENDED TEST - performs a Full Media Scan to detect bad sectors. Test may take several hours to complete depending on the size of the drive.
VIEW TEST RESULT - displays the latest test results.
DataLiveGuard run without errors.
CHKDSK on 1 TB must be run...(about 3 Hours).
Bad idea, my Computer is placed at our living room, next to bed room.
