My major wonder is will badblocks be effective for looking for a medium error?
only if you can disable the disk onboard cache :) a long time ago i changed badblocks write mode algo to write a pattern to the full disk THEN check it, instead of write-block, check, next block which was a victim of the cache. Pity i lost that patch :)
