Storage Solutions Internal HDD bad sectors recovery

[shaktiprabha]

Hi friends

I am using a Seagate 1TB hdd. In the last 6 months the drive has deleted my 2 partitions of 250 gb each twice. I checked my HDD for bad sectors with HDD rejuvinator and I found one sector which was bad and I recovered it using the software.

After that I also recovered the deleted partitions which were automatically converted to unallocated spaces.

I want to know a method so that such a thing does not happen in future with this HDD ?

regards

Use smartmontools to check for bad sectors. If you care for your data replace your drive.

Hi
From the details you have provided,It looks like there is some problem with the partition you were using. Probably, the partition which is missing would have bad sectors.I would suggest you to perform Disk checking which will attempt to scan and fix any bad sectors in the partition space if any.

I’d suggest you to find the diagnostic tool from the manufacturer website and run it.
