Gnome-disk-utility shows warning message - 'Disk has a few bad sectors'
Issue
- We have four SATA hard disk devices connected to the system. The Gnome-disk-utility shows warning message -
Disk has a few bad sectorsorDISK HAS MANY BAD SECTORSfor all these disks. But the disk diagnostic utility provided by h/w vendor does not report any issue with the disk or controller. Is there any bug in the disk utility due to which above warning messages are logged?
