My Quamtum 210 is exhibiting a problem. It continually produces read/write
errors. I have even gone so far as to re-low level formatted it and when
copying my files back over, the requester box (read/write error) still pops
up. The drive is about 4 months old and this is the first problem I've had
with it. I am assuming it has a bad block (or more), but don't know how to
go about mapping it/them out so that the drive will be usable again. Any
help with this problem will be greatly appreciated!
Thanks,
Allen
Your hard drive formatting program should have testing routines; what do
they show? Most hard drive utilities have block remapping functions, so
unless you have a real lame HD utility you should be able to get going once
you figure out how your utility works.
