WD Green 1.5tb read error rate HELP !

[Lesane Amare]

Hello, I have this problem:

 

[Emerald]

Time to back up the data to another drive.

the Read Error Rate count is due to the high number of bad sectors the drive has. This will ultimately lead to data loss.

 

[Lesane Amare]

Could bad sectors be repaired with some software tools?

No. That is a physical condition on that drive.
Backup your data, and replace the drive.

Could you give me the details how the error appeared, is it cause of old age, amount of time that HDD spent working or something third?
