Surface Scan (again) - 2010/07/25 12:33
I have seen the question asked, but no definitive answer. So here is my stats:
I have a MBP with a 250gb drive. It is booted from an edrive on an external drive and has been running surface scan for a couple of days!!!. It is doing something because I can see the numbers changing (including the amount of time running and left that keeps going up and down from a few min to another 12 hours). Right now it says:
Number of blocks on device: 488,397,168
Number of blocks processed: 323,399
Elapsed time 11:41:35 (which is nowhere near how much time it has used)
Estimated time to completion 18:23:44
1628 bad blocks encountered
Do I wait another 18 hours? Is something wrong? is 1629 blocks bad (Very bad?)?
should I start again? Should I start looking for new drive?
Thanks for any help
