Bad Block Howto
Your hard disk fails on Linux - now what?
I happened to me a few times in the last few weeks. A filesystem check for a hard disk would take for ever - my system won't boot. One of the harddisks was reporting bad block errors. At this time i have four different hard disks that are giving me this kind of trouble. All broken harddisks have been taken out of the system and I am analyzing the problem using a virtual machine and a USB-SATA bridge.
First step: remove harddisk from system and put into SATA USB docking station
Hopefully your disk is not needed to boot or fully operate your system. In that case you might want to boot of a USB stick or other media. In any case my procedure is to remove the disk from the original system and use a different system for analysis. In my case i am using an Ubuntu based virtual machine and connect the drive via a USB-SATA bridge. With USB 2 devices the performance is poor. I am not using my old Logilink QP002 Sata Docking Station anymore for this reason.
The USB 3 device i bought in 2015: still serves me well.
Recently i added a 2 port docking station:
Second step - check problems
Tools needed
- A Linux virtual machine
- smartctl
- hdparam
- debugfs
- mount
Examples
https://www.smartmontools.org/wiki/BadBlockHowto describes how to handle bad blocks by using the tools manually. The script fixbad on this page helps to automate this process.
disk Digda
Where is it mounted?
sudo mount | grep Digda
/dev/sdb1 on /media/wf/Digda type ext2 (rw,nosuid,nodev,relatime,uhelper=udisks2)
get basic info and check
get basic info
- using fixbad -i
- using smartctl -i
- using hdparm -I
see the details below check:
fixbad /dev/sdb -c
checking Current_Pending_Sector count for /dev/sdb partition /dev/sdb1 blocksize 4096 startsector
197 Current_Pending_Sector 0x0032 252 252 000 Old_age Always - 0
Current_Pending_Sector is zero!
So this drive has no bad block issues.

The fixbad script tries to summarize the most important information for the bad block fixing needs.
