hi,
i've got problems with my second harddrive.
it causes applications, and usually the whole system, to hang when reading from/writing to certain parts of the harddisk.
i discovered this, when viewing a movie. i could at one point identify the few frames where the problem was, take that part out of the movie and resave it to a new file.
but apppearantly there's more holes / bad sectors. because even with the broken movie still in place (occupying the bad sector), still apps reading/writing the bad-disk sometimes hang the system.. everytime giving a "MacOS input/output error"..
So i completely reformatted the harddrive, with the option "write all zero's" which is supposed to identify and replace bad-sectors..
Still this error occurs every now and then.. i suppose i really need a new harddrive..
Anyone has got other suggestions? How do i repair this problem?
i tried disk-repair apps. like DisK Utility and Disk Warrior but no success.
thanks
