Above are the indicators. IIRC, your previous smartctl run showed only a count of 3 for Current_Pending_Sector, but no other errors. Zero'ing the drive with dd has uncovered the true severity of the drive's problems, as another 1000+ bad sectors were identified by the drive and remapped. > > So yes, the drive needs to be replaced. Thanks for the explanation! I brought the drive to my dealer yesterday and could take a new one with me. :-) I only had to pay the difference of CHF 10.- Btw Stan: I wrote to the manufacturer of the damping mats. He told me that they are isolating. I asked about the value of resistance and if it's flammable. When I have the answer I will order them...
