Re: Two drives at "Critical"

Hi, after using this drive in question, the 4TB Black it eventually went to 70%% health I did a full reinitialize disk surface, with one over write, which passed successfully without find any bad blocks which i find weird because the health dropped to 70%? I have sent the report to you to have a loo...

Re: Two drives at "Critical"

4) Forget to ask... "officially" there are zero "bad" or "damaged" blocks yet there are different colours for different blocks; does that mean they are "semi-bad" or "failing" etc?

Re: Two drives at "Critical"

1) I was about to start using the drive again but thought it would be prudent to do another "repair" on the drive and now it looks like there are many more "bad" blocks; there are still the ones right at the bottom like last time but now there are a bunch of them scattered around...

Re: Two drives at "Critical"

1) I did the offset things and the drive health immediately went up to 100%. Just so i know has the SMART data on the actual drive been edited like on the ROM, if it has any or is it just in the HDS software; like when i reformat/re-install would the data go back to 9% drive health? 2) Since the rel...

Re: Two drives at "Critical"

Do you mean this log?

So i gather from your last post that the disk surface area has been repaired/reallocated therefore ready/safe to use?

Is there any physical / mechanical issues like to do with the platters, or nuts and bolts?

Re: Two drives at "Critical"

I Clicked on Surface test - Disk repair which took around 8 hours on my 4TB drive

There were zero bad sectors though there are 9 dark green blocks on the bottom row

When i check the health of the drive it still says 9% which i don't get even the results of the test

Two drives at "Critical"

1) I got this message on some drives of mine. I have the Pro version. What is the best method to "repair" or test-out these drives? 2) I started with "reinitialize surface area" while connected to a sata I hub but it would take around 40 hours so would this speed up a lot if conn...
