Need to find drive with bad block
Event Viewer: "The device, \Device\Harddisk0\DR0, has a bad block." Got a Windows 10 BSOD, possibly from writing to a bad block. It should not happen on a write, but on a read. The disk firmware, when asked to write on a bad sector, writes instead on a reserved spare sector and maps it, so that the computer never sees that bad sector again (assuming the spare area is not spent). On the other hand, a read would fail. Thanks for the info Carlos E.R. My disk passes all tests now after using Seagate SeaTools Bootable USB. |
