Buy a new disk drive? Seriously, pending sectors are disk write errors and the disk has run out of "extra" blocks to write/re-map them to. The error occurs later when you later attempt to read from them. It is a sign that the disk is is on its way out. > Description > > Current Pending Sector Count S.M.A.R.T. parameter is a critical parameter and > indicates the current count of unstable sectors (waiting for remapping).
