Code:
There are 3 bad sectors on the disk surface.
The contents of these sectors were moved to the spare area.
1214 errors occured during data transfer.
This may indicate problem of the device or with data/power cables.
It is recommended to examine and replace the cables if possible.
It is recommended to continuously monitor the hard disk status.
The other message, is interesting. Of course there's no cable to replace- it's a laptop drive - so what do you think? Is this the HDD electronics dying? The RAM failing? The motherboard dying? That data error number stays at 1214, unless i restart in a command prompt (from the windows DVD) and run a CHKDSK. The checkdisk completes successfully, but if i check SMART again, I see an extra one hundred or so data errors added to the total. The reallocation even count/ pending sector count does not increase. I'm confused.
