Query abt HDD Bad Sectors

I have an old SATA HDD (> 6 years old).
Select parameters reported by Crystaldiskinfo are as follows. Raw values in decimal.


-- S.M.A.R.T. --------------------------------------------------------------


ID Cur Wor Thr RawValues Attribute Name

01 112 _95 __6 43572170 Read Error Rate

05 100 100 _36 00000000 Reallocated Sectors Count

07 _78 _60 _30 63868713 Seek Error Rate

0A 100 100 _97 00000000 Spin Retry Count

BB 100 100 __0 00000000 Reported Uncorrectable Errors

C2 _39 _50 __0 90194313255 Temperature

C5 __1 __1 __0 4294967295 Current Pending Sector Count

C6 __1 __1 __0 4294967295 Uncorrectable Sector Count


C7 200 200 __0 000000003 UltraDMA CRC Error Count

C8 100 253 __0 00000000 Write Error Rate

CA 100 253 __0 00000000 Data Address Mark Error

Now I also ran another software ‘HDD Regenerator’ Trial version on this HDD. This software supposedly shows the bad sectors and claims to recover those. The trial version is supposed to show all bad sectors but only recovers first bad sector though.
This software however reports No Bad Sectors on this disk. Can someone help me understand this? What parameter actually is Bad Sector, is it the Reallocated Sector count or the Uncorrectable Sector or something else.


Thanks.
