So the point here is that your HD now is at risk, could work fine for years without any problem if you're lucky, could happen what happened to me and work for a while, or could just have a total failure right away.
#Crystaldiskinfo reallocated sectors count Pc
It was the HD on one of my backup pcs (always on tho) and I can tell you that it kept working for over 2 years after that, in which the number of sectors kept gettin higher, until one day the pc rebooted itself and would still work but windows would take half an hour to start because the drive had a lot of problems. From experience, I've had something like that happen to me before, a drive that started with a pending sector, then got fixed, then after some time it got worse again and the number was higher.
#Crystaldiskinfo reallocated sectors count how to
So I've learned cool things about how to act in situations like these.No one can give you a clear answer because ALL drives in the end will fail, its not a matter of IF, but a matter of WHEN. Now that I'm not as paranoid, I guess I kinda don't care if any of the two disks blow after backing up my files: I don't care much about my Windows installation, only the few files I'm backing up. I've just turn on the computer again, and it's still at 1.Īs of the "plan accordingly" bit: I'm definitely backing up my files, so I can be quite relaxed about that. but I've seen a bunch of people with way more. It shows down below that it has 1 reallocated sector which is one too many.I know. I am a little troubled by what I see in your images your first image from CrystalDiskInfo shows that at 26594 hours of uptime, you had 115 reallocated sectors. I ran crystaldiskinfo and it's telling me my hard drive health is bad. So I will do as you guys say, and I'm now going to check daily to see how quick that number grows, if it does. If the uncorrectable sectors, reallocated sectors, or pending sectors is/are increasing as time passes, that’s a pretty good sign that the drive is failing. It was just yesterday when I discovered the existence of CrystalDiskInfo and of SMART stuff, and decided to give it a try. I might add, if it's of any relevance, that I don't know since when this disk started reallocating sectors. I know there are other ways to backup things, but so far it's being easy this way. Current Pending Sector Count is a S.M.A.R.T parameter that shows the current count of unstable sectors on your disk that are waiting to be remapped. I'm copying them to my second HDD (image below) which is a bit older, has way more Power On Hours, but looks fine to CrystalDiskInfo and also uploading them to Drive and OneDrive. Yes, I've started to make backups of my files. Then worry about a proper backup program. Up to you to identify them and know where they are.
What I'd do right now is manually copy all personal data files to another drive, using the mouse or keyboard.
Of course, if you are indifferent to personal data loss, there's no reason to back up anything. CrystalDiskInfo now says it's 'Good' rather than the 'Caution' it showed when I first tested it. This was a year ago, the drive has worked reliably since then. Most would tell you to expect any and all drives, new, old, whatever, to fail at any time and to plan accordingly.which means having backups. In my case all the pending sectors tested as good, so both the pending sector count and the reallocated sector count were zero at the end of formatting. Code: Attribute ID Threshold Value Worst Raw Type Reallocated Sector Count 5 36 100000000h EC SP þ Reallocated Sectors: 0 þ Current Temperature: 50 C þ Drive Power Cycle Count: 69. This process is also known as remapping and 'reallocated' sectors are. When the hard drive finds a read/write/verification error, it marks this sector as 'reallocated' and transfers data to a special reserved area (spare area). It's a personal decision entirely, driven by your anxiety level over losing data and possibly by your willingness to spend money on a new drive. parameter indicates the count of reallocated sectors (512 bytes). You can watch and wait.or you can throw in the towel pronto. Every other relevant metric stays the same. There's said to be a tendency for bad sectors to accelerate once they begin to show up.as they are now doing. You have a limited number of substitutes. The "bad sectors" are in effect taken out of the game and replaced with substitute sectors. You might limp along with it for hours or months or? When? Nobody knows at what point it will completely refuse to work. Anything of an electro-mechanical nature will. However, there are times it cannot, ran out of spare sectors or there is other damage on the drive. They do accumulate overtime and drive can reallocate bad sectors. Areas of the drive that cannot be read or written to.
Yes it's doomed if doomed means will it die. Reallocated Sector Count - These are bad sectors.
