Hello!
I have a problem with WD3200AAKS hard drive. I wanted to send it for warranty exchange so I did a Full Erase with Data Lifeguard diagnostic.
Before the full erase:
Current Pending Sector Count was at 8
and extended test results looked like this:
After full erase:
I also tried to test with HDDScan and did not find any bad sectors.
Is the drive dying? Or is it OK and the smart info and DLD test results should not be trusted?
