[QUOTE="blr_p, post: 1068285, member: 10952"] What about good old chkdsk with the repair option to move data from bad to good sectors and label the bad ones so they're not used again. It does not do the latency thing you mentioned tho. Re: the topic's title, i vaguely recall that windows sets some limit for bad sectors which once passed then refuses to read the partition. That does not necessarily mean you lost it just that windows wont read it anymore, a bootup linux will. [/QUOTE]
