I am experiencing a problem with a partition in one of my hard drives, where
each time I boot up it does a CHKDSK, finds no errors or bad sectors and yet
next I reboot it still does a CHKDSK. HELP! What is going on here?
Thanks!

This could be a fault with the electronics module on the drive and not the
recording surface.

Once a system performs CHKDSK regularly it is a sign that the HDD is in need
of replacement.

Do this before you lose all your data.

Hard disk recovery services charge $400 + to recover even just 1Mb. A new
HDD is 1/4 of this.
 
OMG I have this HDD since January and it's a Seagate with 160 gigs storage!
You mean that the rest of the partitions can be affexted as well?
I wonder if Seagate has a so-called 1-year warranty?
 
Hi,
I have Seagate and noticed that PowerMax is designed for testing
Maxtor/Quantum.
Next I ended up using SeaTools and the error I got was om the File Structure
test: FAILED WITH CRITICAL ERRORS.
Before I started doing these daignostic tests someone told me the
possibility of a HDD physical problem and to save my data.
I am saving my data and thinking to scrub it once instead of DoD 7x. That
should be OK, right? The HDD is 160 gigs and it will take days to do it
DoD!
Thanks!
 
To be onest I am thinking to buy another HDD and this time a WD and then
ghost it into the Seagate.
When you say you "daily differential" you mean you ghost your drives?
Otherwise please explain.
Thanks!

Data that is different. On the first run copy everything and then just
copy the data that changes or has become different. I use software
that was written for the purpose by a friend but I'm sure many
suitable application exist.
