Hey,
I have had my wd elements 10b8 for a few months and last night i went to do a system image backup on my laptop. I let this happen over night and the next day it said there was an error. Every since its really slow,i cant access the hard drive.
i used Hard Disk sentinel and it said health was 13% i changed the numbers in S.M.A.R.T to get the health back to 100%
following changed:
Reallocated Sectors Count -1000
Reallocation Event Count -216
Current Pending Sectors -400
After doing this i was able to access the drive and all my data is there, i started to move it to another drive and the rate dropped for 50-100mb per second to 0 for a bit then jumps to 300 kbps then back to 0. As it was doing this after 30 mins i checked Hard Disk sentinel, i could see the health was going down more and more.
what can i do it get my data back and what is wrong with the hard drive.
Thanks For Reading
Nick
