Based on those 4 I quoted from your original post I wouldn't use the |

It's indicating it can't correct some of the bad sectors and they're |
23 |
still visible to the OS (Current_Pending_Sector). This is very bad. It's |
24 |
also reallocated some sectors and they are not visible to the OS |
25 |
anymore. It's reallocated 62752 sectors. |
