There is a special version of dd that will retry on bad sectors and
try to formulate a best guess for the bad sector. I've used it with
some success - took about 2 weeks to recover a 300GB drive. I also
had to keep it refrigerated. <br>

<div>I have a 2 TB WD USB drive that I formated
with NTFS. I have a rather extensive movie/TV
library on it for my plex media server, and I am
getting read errors. I hope I haven't lost all
of that data! It has been attached to one of my
Netgear wireless access points, hence the need
for NTFS. <br>

fdisk -l gives for the drive<br>

I tried running smartctl on the device, (which is
now plugged into a usb 3.0 port on my laptop) and
got this error after a few tests<br>

Any thoughts on how I can fix this drive, or do I need
to get a new one? What is the best way to copy the
contents of the drive with these errors to a new drive?<br>
<br>

Thanks!<br>
