Hi everyone.

I have an iMac OSX 10.4.8 and an external hard disk which I use as a back-up
using SuperDuper to give me an exact clone of the iMac.

I ran DiskWarrior ( V4) on the iMac and it said my hard disk was too damaged
to rebuild and I should back up everything. It seemed to be working just
fine.

I ran Disk Utility and it could find no problem.

I backed up and then ran DiskWarrior on the external hard disk which was
successfully rebuilt.

Seeing as the external hard disk is a clone of the iMac does that indicate
there is a PHYSICAL problem with the iMac HD - not a software problem - and
I should have it replaced immediately?
