Thanks for your help, fred. Everything seems "clean" now, but I should
perform these checks regularly now that some inconsistencies have appeared.

Though maybe the current drive can be salvaged (it's only four years
old -- do drives die that fast now?).
Three years is the average life expectancy but the actual life span is
measured in running hours which your disk brand's total life can be
looked up on the net.
Ugh, I thought that was the case. Magnetic storage is inexpensive these

seven-year hard drive. :-(
