Bad sectors found on Drive? : here is solution

Problem:The platters used in today’s hard drives are broken down into tracks and sectors. Each sector is a small portion of the drive where data is stored. Inevitably, some of these sectors become corrupt and can no longer be used. When a sector goes “bad” the data stored there is usually lost.

Solution:Disk diagnostic utilities,such as
Scandisk or Norton Disk Doctor,inspect a drive and will attempt to repair bad sectors.More often than not,however,that bad sector can no longer be used because it has become corrupted in some way.These diagnostic utilities will then mark that
bad sector as unusable,and the system will no longer attempt to write new data there. Most drive manufacturers also have free, downloadable.

Thank You
