Error on Samsung?

[louise]

Samsung Spinpoint 160mg about a year old with heavy use.

I went to run Norton Ghost and was told the image couldn't
be created because of a disk error.
I ran chkdsk /f
Norton ran fine

I ran the Samsung Diagnostics and all was fine in the quick
tests. Then I went ahead and went into the deeper level of
checking. I am getting an error:

C:2665 H:1 S:863 Error: a media error is detected.

I ran chkdsk /f again and then the deep level Samsung.
Samsung came up with the same error.

The disk appears fine in its day to day activities.

Should I worry about this? Do I need to run out and replace
the disk? Will I suddenly have no disk?

TIA

Louise

Here is a printout of the report. Do I need to replace the
drive?

I don't know about the more recent versions of Ghost but with Ghost 8 or
so you could just use the -FRO switch to force it to continue even if
there are bad blocks.

Because that sector isnt being used for anything thats
important and may not even be being used at all.

Best to fix it, because it gets in the way of using stuff like Ghost.

Do I need to run out and replace the disk?

You'll likely find that doing a bad scan with the diagnostic should fix it.

Will I suddenly have no disk?

Unlikely with just one bad sector.

You should certainly have what you care about fully backed up tho.

Nope.

Post the Everest SMART report here to see
if there is more than one bad sector involved.

You can tell ghost to ignore errors so you can still do an image.
Exactly how you do that varys a bit with exactly which version you are using.

Thanks for your detailed responses.

You say I should "fix it" and I don't know how to do that.

You say "You'll likely find that doing a bad scan with the

I already ran chkdsk /r and then ran the Samsung utility
again. The Samsung utility still showed the error. Is that
because it shows bad sectors even if they've been blocked -
or is it still vulnerable?

Thanks again.

It is a bit hard to say. I recently had the same behaviour on a Samsung
that was dropped. Basically everything was fine, but the short and long
SMART self-tests (long is "surface scan") failed with a read error.
Also there were about 10 files that could not be read completely.
This indicates that the disk surface was actually damaged and
would very likely have caused increasing levels of additional
damage, had I kept the disk.

I would advise you to replace the drive. It might be a problem that
is at the moment isolated to a few secors (hence seems fine in
normal operation). While this problem could go away if you
overwrite the disk (use a disk-clear utility to do that), it could
also spread. And it may be the first symptom of a more serious
problem.

If you decide to keep the disk, do regular backup and be prepared
for a catastrophic failure. BTW, Samsung should replace this disk
under waranty. Read errors in the surface scan should be enough
for that.

How do you invoke these Samsung tests?

Where do you get them from?

 

[Rod Speed]

How do you invoke these Samsung tests?

Its a standard SMART test.

Where do you get them from?

They're built into the drive, invoked with something like smartctl.

Standard SMART tests. I use the smartmontools (-> google) for them.

Can you run Ghost now ?

I just ran the
Everest SMART report and everything looks normal.
I am able to successfully run Ghost 9 now.
My only concern, and I gather it's not very significant at
this point, is that hutil still says there are defects on
the disk.
Here's the Everest SMART report and I'd appreciate your
feedback on it.

How do you invoke these Samsung tests?

Where do you get them from?

http://www.samsung.com/Products/HardDiskDrive/utilities/hutil.htm

You download hutil.exe and run it from a floppy.

I went to run Norton Ghost and was told the image couldn't be

Norton ran fine

I ran the Samsung Diagnostics and all was fine in the quick
tests. Then I went ahead and went into the deeper level of checking. I
am getting an error:

C:2665 H:1 S:863 Error: a media error is detected.

That is saying that there is a bad sector at that location.

I ran chkdsk /f again and then the deep level Samsung. Samsung
came up with the same error.

The disk appears fine in its day to day activities.

Because that sector isnt being used for anything thats
important and may not even be being used at all.

Should I worry about this?

Best to fix it, because it gets in the way of using stuff like
Ghost.

Do I need to run out and replace the disk?

You'll likely find that doing a bad scan with the diagnostic
should fix it.

Will I suddenly have no disk?

Unlikely with just one bad sector.

You should certainly have what you care about fully backed up tho.

Here is a printout of the report. Do I need to replace the drive?

Nope.

Post the Everest SMART report here to see

http://www.majorgeeks.com/download.php?det=4181

You can tell ghost to ignore errors so you can still do an image.
Exactly how you do that varys a bit with exactly which version you
are using.

Thanks for your detailed responses.

You say I should "fix it" and I don't know how to do that.

I was going to spell that out once I had seen the Everest SMART
report. What is best varys with what the report says.

You say "You'll likely find that doing a bad scan with the

See above.

I already ran chkdsk /r and then ran the Samsung utility again. The Samsung utility
still showed the error. Is that because it
shows bad sectors even if they've been blocked -
Correct.

or is it still vulnerable?

Can you run Ghost now ?

I just ran the Everest SMART report and everything looks normal.

Yes it does.

I am able to successfully run Ghost 9 now.

OK, no need to do anything more.

My only concern, and I gather it's not very significant at
this point, is that hutil still says there are defects on the disk.

It says there is just one defect. Dont worry about it, it isnt being
used so the drive will just map it away if it ever is used in future.

Here's the Everest SMART report and I'd appreciate your feedback on it.

The first two are the only ones we needed and yes, the drive is fine.

You should be able to get rid of the Hutil error message using
Hutil but you would have to backup the data first and restore it
after doing that so there isnt any point in doing that now.

[Folkert Rienstra]

It is a bit hard to say. I recently had the same behaviour on a Samsung
that was dropped. Basically everything was fine, but the short and long
SMART self-tests (long is "surface scan") failed with a read error.
Also there were about 10 files that could not be read completely.
This indicates that the disk surface was actually damaged and
would very likely have caused increasing levels of additional
damage, had I kept the disk.

So you let Samsung bear the cost of your mistake. Nice one.

I would advise you to replace the drive.

Why, she didn't drop it, like you did.

It might be a problem that is at the moment isolated to a few secors

1 'secor', babblemouth. Just one.

(hence seems fine in normal operation). While this problem could go away if you
overwrite the disk (use a disk-clear utility to do that), it could
also spread.

Yup. But not necessarily because of mechanical failure.

And it may be the first symptom of a more serious problem.

Yup, it may be.

If you decide to keep the disk, do regular backup and be prepared
for a catastrophic failure.

Actually, try and findout what caused the bad sector and fix
that, and maybe your catastrophic failure will never happen.

BTW, Samsung should replace this disk under waranty.

*If* it is failing.

Read errors in the surface scan should be enough for that.

Nope, not if the drive isn't failing.

Why, she didn't drop it, like you did.

It might be a problem that is at the moment isolated to a few secors

1 'secor', babblemouth. Just one.

(hence seems fine in normal operation). While this problem could go away if you
overwrite the disk (use a disk-clear utility to do that), it could
also spread.

Yup. But not necessarily because of mechanical failure.

And it may be the first symptom of a more serious problem.

Yup, it may be.

If you decide to keep the disk, do regular backup and be prepared
for a catastrophic failure.

Actually, try and findout what caused the bad sector and fix
that, and maybe your catastrophic failure will never happen.

BTW, Samsung should replace this disk under waranty.

*If* it is failing.

Read errors in the surface scan should be enough for that.

Nope, not if the drive isn't failing.

You suggest finding out what caused the bad sector. How

Norton ran fine

I ran the Samsung Diagnostics and all was fine in the quick tests. Then
I went ahead and went into the deeper level of checking. I am getting
an error:

C:2665 H:1 S:863 Error: a media error is detected.

I ran chkdsk /f again and then the deep level Samsung. Samsung came up
with the same error.

The disk appears fine in its day to day activities.

Should I worry about this? Do I need to run out and replace the disk?
Will I suddenly have no disk?

Here is a printout of the report. Do I need to replace the drive?

It is a bit hard to say. I recently had the same behaviour on a Samsung
that was dropped. Basically everything was fine, but the short and long
SMART self-tests (long is "surface scan") failed with a read error.
Also there were about 10 files that could not be read completely.
This indicates that the disk surface was actually damaged and
would very likely have caused increasing levels of additional
damage, had I kept the disk.

Which is what you always have to do (eliminate external influences)
before you point the drive out as the sole cause of the problems.

How would I go about doing that?

By checking Power Supply voltage levels, drive temperature and shock or vi-
bration, they are common causes for bad writes. Easier said than done though.

Since you have only one bad sector it may have been a one off event.

What may need further investigation is the Hardware ECC recovered count,
whether that is normal for Samsung drives or not. 44 million seems a bit high.

Don't mind Folkert. He does not know what he is talking about. He
cannot interpret SMART data. What you have is a massive amount of
marginal secorts. So many in fact that the drive cannot report their
number anymore.

A few bad sectrrs could be due to vibration or a problem
with the PSU. This large number is almost certaion due to
a serious problem with the HDD itself.

Incidentially finding out what caqused the bad sectors (if
it is an external cause) is only possible with reasonable
effort if it is a relatively low number that is increasing
steadily. If you have that, then you can swap components and
see whether the increaese stops. Personally I never had this,
but some pople had it due to a defective PSU.

Someone just made a rather spectacular fool out of himself.
It appears his insanity is finally taking over.
