Hi All, today I have changed the harddisk on my PC from 1.1G to ~4G WD Caviar 24300. I was quite happy when I have got running system by simply 'cp from_old_disk to_new_disk'. Everything was fine until I tried to work with big files (~400M). First I used 'dd' to make copy but system hungs at some point. Then I decided to use 'cp' and I got a lot of horrible messages about disk errors. As I remember, during 'mkfs.ext2 -c /dev/hdx' there was only "read only testing". Is there any way to do read/write test? Or, may there are other idea about this problem?
