Digital camera Review: 1 year old and its failing.....w/bad clusters
Summary: 2 Stars

I have a HP Pavilion DV4-2140US laptop, running Windows7 Ultimate. This is my main computer. The Seagate ST9320423AS disk drive is original to the laptop which I purchased a year ago. This 320 gig Seagate disk drive is very quite and I guess it's fast and until this last weekend, it did what it was supposed to do.

While doing my weekly backup I got a bunch of read errors. I ran CHKDSK and sure enough 21 bad clusters were found. CHKDSK said it moved the data and flagged all 21 bad clusters. Then I went into the BIOS and ran the HDD diagnostic program. Just 10-15 seconds go by and up pops a message stating "Replace Hard Drive One." I posted all this on the HP Notebook forum. They said the Seagate disk drive is bad and I need to replace it as soon as I can.

So, while looking for a new disk drive on-line, I find a lot of people reporting Seagate drives are not as reliable as some other manufactures with bad clusters being a top Seagate problem. My previous laptop had a Western Digital disk drive. The disk drive was still going after 4 years - so I'll try another Western Digital disk drive. I'm buying a Western Digital 320gig Scorpio Black WD3200BEKT.
