Today i bought a refurbished 320 gb hitachi HDD from a local store-the reason i went for a refurb drive was that i was attempting to resurrect an old pc and so i wanted to keep the costs down as far as possible.However on checking the condition of the hard drive using Crystal disk info and HDD sentinel,i discovered that it has 1 bad sector.While the hdd seems to be working fine,is there any cause for alarm?Is it normal for refurbished drives to ship with some bad sectors?Will it be safe to continue using this drive or should i try to get it replaced?I'm not sure whether the shopkeeper will agree to replace a drive that otherwise seems to be working normally.Please suggest what i should do.Here are some screenshots of crystal disk info:
