I've been trying to make a clone of this HDD for a day now, but it's been horribly slow. Someone recommended doing a chkdsk
on the drive and then rebooting, but chkdsk
was going way too slow as well—it was scanning sectors one by one.
I downloaded HD Tune Pro, and immediately saw that the Raw Read Error Rate was over the limit at 44 (42 being the worst).
What should I do in this situation? Is it now impossible to clone the drive?
