[SOLVED] Crystal Disk Info Caution Reading

[zac2215]

Just bought a pre-built pc and installed an old HDD for extra storage. Never had any issue with the drive before, but today I installed CrystalDiskInfo and was met with a caution reading.

Should I just bite the bullet and get a new HDD or is there a "repair" that can be done.

(Here is a screen shot of CrystalDisk Info).

You have a couple bad sectors.
"I" would be keeping an eye on the drive and making sure anything important on it is backed up already.
If the count goes up, it's out of my system. Cant trust it anymore plus Seagate's are more difficult to recover from anyways IMO.
