Hard drives are storage media, which is very important in the computer. Unfortunately, the use of the limited age. Damage to the hard disk can be caused by several things. For example:
* Power supply is inadequate and damage the hard drive and motor Controller.
* Hard fall and damage the mechanics inside, or at least the bad sector.
* Too often taken without bringing security to make hard-disk platter damaged because of excess shocks.
* The temperature inside the hard drive to create a hot hard drive in the environmental condition is not stable.
* Conditions MTBF / age hard drives, have been achieved and will be damaged.
It can still be done to improve the affected hard disk bad sector is only where conditions are still hard disk rotates, the situation is still working hard disk controller. But the situation is still divided, if you want to use the hard disk bad sector affected. The problem causes bad sector is one of the damage that often occurs. Conditions of damage by bad sector is distinguished by 3 situation.
* Conditions where hard disk platter worn. In this condition is indeed hard disk can not be used. The old hard drive is damaged and not useful to be used as storage media.
* Conditions platter of worn-out but has not reached critical condition. This condition can be considered stable enough for the hard disk. Chance of hard drive can still be improved because the platter is still possible dilow level.
* Conditions platter of worn-out, good or serious condition which mild damage, but there is a cluster of 0 (the location where the hard disk partition information stored). This condition does not allow hard disk repaired.
Hard disk to discuss the situation improved only possible improvement in the condition to 2, where the surface of the hard drive is still stable, but there is light damage in some places.
Purpose
* Efforts to use a hard disk that there are bad sector
* Men-elimination on the location of the damage bad sector.
Stages 1
Before conducting the next stage should use the stage 1 to ensure the condition of the damaged hard disk platter. To know this hard drive must be made LOW LEVEL FORMAT (LLF). LLF can be done from the BIOS or software. For the BIOS, like some old PC generation Pentium 486 or (586) have the option LLF. Or can use the software LLF. To get the software LLF can be taken at the Site creator of the hard disk. Or search for the file, such as utility hddutil.exe (from MAXTOR - MaxLLF.exe) and wipe.exe version 1.0c 05/02/96.
LLF function of the software is to delete all the partitions good information, data and information on the hard disk bad sector. Software is also useful to improve the error of making the FAT partitions from Windows 32 fdisk.
After running the program LLF, the hard disk will really clean as the condition was first used.
Warning: Use LLF software will erase all data on your hard disk
Stages 2
The next process is to try and error method. Stages for this session are:
a. Make a hard disk partition: With the program fdisk partition with 1 alone, both primary or extended partition. For primary can be done with a single hard disk, but when you want as the extended hard drive, a hard drive as necessary the boot process and have a primary partition (the partition to make booting).
b. Format the hard drive: With FORMAT C: / C. The addition of the / C option to run a checkpoint when a bad sector. During the format check how much persentasi damage on the hard disk. This is visible in the image below.

When the program displays the Format Trying to Recover allocation units XXXXXX, meaning the program is to check the condition of the hard disk where the bad sector. The test under the assumption this is a Seagate 1.2 GB hard drive with 2 locations and damage small percentage of the estimated number indicated by the program FORMAT:
1. Both conditions:
- Display on the program format: 0-20%
- Percentages that can be used: 20%
2. Bad sector conditions:
- Display on the program format: 21%
- Percentages that can be used: discarded
3. Both conditions:
- Display on the program format: 22-89%
- Percentages that can be used: 67%
4. Bad sector conditions:
- Display on the program format: 91%
- Percentages that can be used: discarded
5. Both conditions:
- Display on the program format: 91-100%
- Percentages that can be used: 9%
c. Create a partition again: With fdisk, remove all partitions on your hard disk before, and make appropriate partition note that the damage occurred. Assumptions in the picture below is the creation of the partition with the Primary and Extended partitions. In the Primary partition is not visible, and only indicated the extended partition. The division in the picture below is on the drive D and F (22MB and 12 MB) discarded because there is a bad sector. While the E and G (758MB and 81MB) as the drive is still in good condition and can be used.

If you persevere enough to improve your bad sector, can also be done with the try-error repeat the search with the location of bad sector on the hard drive in the smaller stages, for example, make a lot of partition to minimize the possibility terbuangnya space on the partition will be removed. The stickler for damage to the place where the bad sector, the better, only this way will take longer, although the results are quite satisfactory location of the hard disk where the damage occurred.

d. To ensure that bad sector is located on the hard drive partition that will be discarded, do all in the format the drive letter with the Format command / C. If indeed there is a bad sector on the partition removed (on the assumption that the test is bad sector on the drive letter D and F), the partitions can be removed immediately. But when an error occurs, for example, the damage is not bad sector on the partition to be removed but there is the partition that will be used, you must repeat the process again from the beginning by removing the partition where there are errors in the affected partition dividing the bad sector. Things to remember: Making a partition made from the beginning to end, for example, C, D, E and the next. To remove the partitions on the way from the Z to C. Error in removing partitions and create a random acakan will disrupt the system partition the hard drive.
e. The next process is to partition that is not used again. After the inspection program with the Format, then in the next process is to partition that contains bad sectors. In the picture below is: Phase 2 discard with fdisk to partition the drive letter D and E. For E and G is the drive letter that will be used.
http://www.obengware.com/tips/2000/harddiskbadsector3.jpg
F. At the end of the stage you can check back with a hard disk partition option 4 (Display partitisi) on the program fdisk, for example in the picture below is the remaining 3 drives: C as a primary partition (not visible), 2 extended partitions that are still good and the partition that contains bad sector have been deleted.
http://www.obengware.com/tips/2000/harddiskbadsector4.jpg
G. End of the process. You have a hard drive with a condition that has been improved because of bad sector. Letter divided on the C drive as the primary partition and used as a boot, D (758MB) and E (81MB) is to partition 2 and 3 in the extended partition.
If you are not satisfied with the results of the search for bad sectors, then you can repeat the above prosesur. Tips for doing this should know the procedure to create a partition with the fdisk program.
It should be noted that the tip is, be careful in the use of the program LLF. We recommend using a single drive to use this program. Errors do LOW LEVEL FORMAT on the hard disk is not fatal and can dikembalikin conditions as the original.
For hard disk affected BAD SECTOR should use the hard disk that conditions have not been too bad or worse in the sector, there are some places and not sporadic spread. Damage in many places (sporadic bad sector) on the hard disk will complicate the search where the bad sector.
* Power supply is inadequate and damage the hard drive and motor Controller.
* Hard fall and damage the mechanics inside, or at least the bad sector.
* Too often taken without bringing security to make hard-disk platter damaged because of excess shocks.
* The temperature inside the hard drive to create a hot hard drive in the environmental condition is not stable.
