As The Above Image Shows

I Have Recently Bought A New WD 1 Tb Black From An Online Store Which Just Shipped To Me .. The Hdd Was Well Packed With 2 Layers Of Bubble Wrap And A Good Box

When I Received The Drive ... I Quick Formatted It An Then Checked It With HD Tune For Bad Sectors

And This Is The Result I Got

I Just Want To Know If Its Usual Or Not

Hope The Data Provided Helps

I always long format a drive the first time it's used since a long format will scan for and attempt to repair bad sectors.. If I'm repurposing a drive I'll short format it.. Try reformatting it or do a chkdsk x: /f /r where x is your drive letter. Either of these options will take some time so I usually do it over night.
