My 10 month old Western Digital drive has 3 contiguous bad blocks. They

are deep enough inside the root partition that they will probably not
cause any trouble for a while. Can I find a magical tool that will
instruct the drive to fix them? Or should I just wrap a partition around
them, and call it the partition of death.


You may also want to check out the Western Digital webpage, they have some nice tools for checking and repairing hard drives. I used them to find out my drive was unfixable and they sent me a new one.
