Hello,
I have a western digital hard drive, of 500 Go, since five years. It's my secondary drive.
Since two months these events happens :
Around 3'clock or 4'clock in the morning, anti-virus Kaspersky checks the whole computer.
Once during this checking, a message comes : "Intel Rapid Storage Technology : disk DR1 : Removed",
and for then minutes, if I attempt to do any use that would lead to that disk, at best the explorer show a disk letter without content, at worst the whole computer freeze.
But it only freeze for a while, and after then minutes, it resumes by sending the notification "Intel Rapid Storage Technology : disk DR1 : Detected", and few seconds after works again for the whole day.
I discovered that it had bad sectors : the time when it hangs show bad sectors notifications on the event logger.
I asked Windows 7 to repair it through an automated CHKDSK at restart, the one that takes quite a day. He did, and discovered 7 bad sectors for 24 KB.
But the bad sectors weren't corrected, or not all detected... Days after, and this morning, my computer still freezes during ten minutes. I saw 30 notifications of bad sectors today on the event logger.
But what can I do if CHKDSK doesn't really correct bad sectors (=> mark them at bad) or if Kaspersky still wants to read them ?
It doesn't seems (to me !) that my hard-drive is broken, even if it is old. The time when the trouble occurs is always around the same hour.
I think there is a software issue, but I don't understand what it can be.
Regards
