I have booted Windows 7 on my laptop and ran HD Sentinel Free (www.hdsentinel.com). It displayed that I have 3 bad sectors which are reallocated.
My reallocated sector count was: 0x07CF00010003 GSmartControl gave me: 8585639690243 Palimpsest gave me: 65539 So warning is real in my case but number is incorrect. In case of Jose Mico (wrote on 2009-11-05: #50) 0x01000F000000 65551 Probably 15 (F) or 0 RSC 0x010007000000 65543 Probably 7 (7) or 0 RSC 0x07002E000000 458798 Probably 46 (2E) or 0 RSC 0x050011000000 327697 Probably 17 (11) or 0 RSC 0xB4001D000000 1900724 Probably 29 (1D) or 0 RSC I think compare these values to threshold: if value > threshold and smart reports ok then just ignore warning if value < threshold and smart reports ok then it is unkown (maybe correct or not) if smart reports fail then backup all your data -- palimpsest bad sectors false positive https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/438136 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
