One hardisk confirm having bad sector, it is not recommend to use again, because your data is much more expensive then the hardisk, not worth it..

yup one hardidsk have bad sector so copying from am good sector to an already damaged hard disk may result in loss of data.

u can repair bad sectors using "HDD REGENERATOR",
email me if u still need that software

From personal experiance, i wouldnt bother repairing the bad sectors as it can never be guarenteed that they will function properally again! Also next time if they did go bad you may have more important information on these sectors which maybe unrecoverable!

if ur hard disk is till in warranty try to exchange it ..... else uh can use hdd regenerator .... which is not 100 % data security ensured cos ur harddisk has got a bad sector once :(

and if uh happen to buy another hard disk ... then uh can use the other harddisk as a slave and expand ur computers storage and put in there files which are not that important ... welll if i had such a hard disk i would buy a case a hdd case to make it a usb drive ...... or just play around with linux

Yup. Try to repair it, then use it as temporary storage media..

Try to use Diskmanager
You can find it on Hirens boot cd

Hardisk regenerator
use in dos mode if u hav Hiren's boot cd or connect it to another hardisk run windows and then use software...or donot connect make boot able floppy disk from this software attached
atachment contains keygen and software Hdd regenerator 1.41

This software is very simple to use and can remove physical bad sectors
Hope u will opt-out from trouble
