So, my hard drive (500gb WD Caviar Blue) is beginning to fail. I am currently using it as my OS drive (soon to be replaced) and i was wondering if it would give me issues if i used it as a storage drive after wiping and reformatting it. It seems to have about an 8k bad sector. Currently have it partitioned into 2, an 80gb and then the rest.
So do you think this hard drive will still be alright for use as a storage drive or no?
