Mount it read-only and get the data off it IMMEDIATELY.  I wouldn't try
fsck-ing on any disk with even a single read or write error.  Fsck will
fail if it can't find a real sector to allocate, and I don't think it deals
well with bad sectors anyway.  Point is:  don't let it.  "dd" the drive
ASAP and cut your losses...
