I'm pretty sure that SCSI drives, or at least more modern ones, do. The ones I've used have a list of bad blocks stored internally and will relocate blocks automatically. The drives allowed you to reset this list by running a low level format from the scsi controller. The drives would then clear the bad blocks list and recheck disk blocks again. -- Suchandra Thapa <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
