HDD repair help please
Hi, How could I repair my HDD with disk manager or similar? Because, it has got a lots of bad sector. Before I could do that with fsck in recovery mode after umount /home. But now it can't work - it says device in use.

Then you have access to a lot of rescue tools. Dependend of the filesystem you want to rescue, you might want to choose the best option. My suggestion: For FAT/NTFS try UBCD4WIN, maybe also Hirens Boot CD. For those and EXT2/3/4 and other linux based filesystems, I suggest live systems like Trinity-Rescue-Kit, Rescatux or Rescue-is-Possible. Also GRML is very good. These alll content much tools for rescueing systems. You might also want to look at DEFT-7.2 (32-bit) or DEFT-8 (64-bit).

It can only repair a file system which is not mounted or which is mounted read/only. However, if the sectors are bad because the hard disk is going bad, fsck cannot fix that. You need to determine why the sectors went bad in the first place. If your hard disk is going bad, it's time to replace the hard disk. -- .''`.
