Hello,
to all of you.
I have a 250GB HDD, this hdd has some partitions with bad sectors on it, actually, whenever I start copying the data from this hdd to some another
hdd then I get bad sectors error, When I check this hdd with Windows scandisk, so that scandisk can mark the bad sectors, then scandisk takes too
much time to mark these bad sectors, Now, I am finding some utility that can mark bad sectors of hdd fastly than scandisk.Please reply soon with some
utitlity name.Hope to see reply.Thank you for reading my post.

bad sectors are a sort of physical damage on hdd... its not possible to recover it!! the only way is to send the hdd for hard recovery which is too costly....

Firstly, thank you for all the replies, I have tried MHDD, Vivard, and also tuneup, but these programs could not help.Anyways, I want to know, Is there any utility that can work on partition wise and can mark or fix bad sectors on some particular partition of the hard disk? Actually, I have some partitions on hdd out of them only some have bad sectors.Reply soon.Thank you for reading my post.

Hello,
Regarding, "VIVARD" Whenever I try to install this program, it asks for the floppy drive, I use new Intel board, on which I dont have any floppy drive connector, so, its setup interupts. MHDD dont show any drive in their window, I think due to mine SATA drive.Anyways, If you have some other utility then let me know.Thank you for reading this post.
