If a rar, zip or exe file is good in a good sector of the HDD and that sector becomes bad (badblock) then these files are corrupted and burned on DVD discs as if they were non-corrupted files? I use ImgBurn, BurnAware Free and Ashampoo Free

The data in those corrupt sectors may be skipped, or corrupted, or the burning process may stop completely.

But it really doesn't matter.
If you have a 100 page book, and pages 27-36 are ripped out (skipped data), or someone has scribbled all over them with a Sharpie (corrupt data)....you, the reader, have no idea what was on those pages. The book is incomplete and not fully understandable.

A zip file or exe is even worse. It will not work.

If a zip file, rar or exe from my collection is located in the bad sector of the HDD badblock, is the DVD burning canceled during the% burning process or before? Is the cancellation and error message shown by the burning software (ImgBurn Free, Ashampoo Free, BurnAware free, Nero) or by Windows? does Windows XP do this? XP is from the year 2000 and the HDD is from the year 2000 IDE



please answer me all these doubts

is this error shown during% burning or before burning the DVD?

Windows XP and the year 2000 IDE HDD show this error for DVD burning software? can you explain how this error works?

burning a dvd from a file that is in a defective sector of the HDD do I get an error or alert before burning the dvd?

  1. I want to understand if the HDD has SMART technology is a total indication that it automatically reallocates and isolates bad sectors (badblocks)
  2. I am also doubtful whether IDE HDDs from 2000 have SMART technology and automatically relocate and isolate defective sectors and if Windows XP interferes in this process because it is an old system and I used it
  3. I don't know the year that SMART technology was inserted in HDDs

SMART is the monitoring and reporting tool.

The drive firmware does all the reallocation. Until it runs out of spare sectors.

You apparently have a 20 year old drive. It may or may not have actual sectors that are physically damaged.
The more you mess with it, the worse it will get.
