rsync

[Carruth, Rusty]

Try fsck –f (for force).  If the filesystem is marked clean and some other stuff it won’t run the test, IIRC.

$ sudo fsck /dev/sdc1
fsck from util-linux 2.27.1
$

isn't it supposed to give a code of some sort?
Here is a mall snippet of the errors it gives when trying to rsync to the drive:

rsync: readlink_stat("/media/bmike1/Seagate Expansion Drive/Documents/Programs/file recovery/recup_dir.465/f46403032.ini") failed: Input/output error (5)
rsync: readlink_stat("/media/bmike1/Seagate Expansion Drive/Documents/Programs/file recovery/recup_dir.465/f46403576.xml") failed: Input/output error (5)

here is a snippet of the errors I get when trying to  delete the file recovery directory:

rm: cannot remove 'file recovery/recup_dir.465/f46401688.xml.gz': Input/output error
rm: cannot remove 'file recovery/recup_dir.465/f46401920.xml.gz': Input/output error

any ideas how I can delete  them?
