I've got a strange diagnostic after running multiple hard disk diagnostic tools. I had a doubt that my system might have developed bad sectors and I ran
1)HD Tune. The result is, the drive is good. NO BAD SECTORS
2)Hard Drive Inspector Professional. Result->NO BAD SECTORS
3)Hard Disk Sentinel. Result->1 BAD SECTOR![Crying or Very sad :cry: :cry:](/community/styles/default/xenforo/smilies/icon_cry.gif)
4)chkdsk from windows, properly done. Result-> NO BAD SECTORS
5)HDD Life Pro. Result->NO BAD SECTORS
So, is this a false positive or should I really be concerned? I might buy a new HD. Which should I buy? I'm now having a Seagate 160GB SATA-I and it just finished its 5 year warranty as well![Frown :( :(](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
