i recently started getting this message every 5- 10 mins..... have never seen anything like this so its kinda suspicious..... is it really a windows message??
um.. So you mean that i can get it replaced with a new one.??? cos as far as i know they dont give a new disk./.. they change your disk with another one(that is not a new one but already used but in working condition...)... + i dont have any problems with this disk till now only this stupid message popping up every 5 mins that's all... no decrease in speed not even one single file corrupted...
Get this tool: HD Tune website
a bit confusing.... one test says my disk got bad sectors... and the other showed all sectors green and in good health... um..
Yes, your hdd is dying, when sectors get damaged, your hdd remaps to them to some reserve sectors so no error appears under scanning, but the errors continue to grow and after some remapping your hdd runs out of reserve sectors and the hdd finally dies, take a backup fast and replace your hdd asap.
