Well, the first thing I did after buying this damn good looking black metal 
Toshiba thing last year was formatting and partitioning it...

I had already ran Disk Warrior over it, and in step 5 it gave me following 
outputs "reduced speed by XXX because of disk malfunction" where xxx was a 
number which got increasingly higher....

Step 5 never ended.

After having bought now a new HD, I tried to reformat the whole disk, without 
success  :-(
