Disk Check Up

[pubillet]

've been getting S.M.A.R.T. error on one of my hard drive for at least a month now and have been wondering what was actually wrong with it... then I came across DiskCheckup. The result was as follows:


Rellocated sector count 1023 Fail 1 1 50

is there any solution ?
many thanks

is there any solution ?

No. Contact the manufacture of the hard drive. If it is a new drive ask for a replacement (or a detailed reason why it is normal for this model drive to report is it failing).

If it is an old drive and you don't want to replace it, start keeping good backups of your data. You might need them.
