I am replacing a Maxtor hard drive and I'm going to try and clone it to the new Seagate 1tb drive I have on the way.
I ran the S.M.A.R.T feature on speed fan and what it said about my drive is posted below.
My question is will I be able to clone this drive and do I need to do anything to try and repair it before I do the cloning?
Thanks in advance for any advice

NOTE : your hard disk has 1907 pending sectors (this value is very large and your hard disk should be replaced). Those are sectors that couldn't be properly read and that the hard disk logic is waiting for a write operation to try to remap to a spare sector (if available). According to the Reallocated Sector Count attribute, your hard disk seems to have available spare sectors. A simple disk surface scan won't be enough to force the remap operation. You need a read/write surface scan to remap the sector. The best option should be a tool that knows about what should be read from that sector so that it has some option to apply the best fix to the missing data.
NOTE : your hard disk has 1907 offline uncorrectable sectors (this value is very large and your hard disk should be replaced). Those are sectors that an offline scanning found as unreadable. Offline scanning is a process that can be automatically started by the hard disk logic when a long enough idle period is detected or that can be forced by some tool. Those unreadable sectors are identified and the hard disk logic is waiting for a write command that will overwrite them to try to remap them to spare sectors (if available).
