so the Seek_Time_Performarce is kinda oscillating. |
| 40 |
|
| 41 |
I could buy another one and replace, but I fear early mortality. So, |
| 42 |
what should I do (apart from frequent backups)? Use this one as main |
| 43 |
until its errors becomes more serious and use the new one with |
| 44 |
non-essential data stuff to see if it works? |
| 45 |
|
| 46 |
By the way, a dd if=/old/disk of=/new/disk is enough to transfer the |
| 47 |
whole thing, isn't it? |
