The main issue i have been having is that my hard drive appears to be having some problems, it started about 1 week ago when i installed The Last Remnant (don't judge me) and it ran fine. I turned my computer off no issues whatsoever. The next day I turned it on and it did a disk check on startup so i left it there took a shower for 10 minutes when I got back it was on the login screen. I turn on steam try to play the Last Remnant (again don't judge me) and it wouldn't start. I verified the files and it would say it would need updating. I then said screw it played something else and nothing else happened. The next day chkdsk runs again on startup, I skip it and decide to do a chkdsk with a command line, it starts reading a whole lot of bad sectors I distinctly remember it saying at some point 9% when it said 414780 of 441518 sector unreadable. Also during this chkdsk it took a long time to move from one sector to the next. I left it on overnight and it only advanced like 1000 sectors in about 12 hours. Gave up on that idea and figured I wouldn't be able to play my game. Tried to play team fortress 2 and same deal said it couldn't be read, tried to verify the game files and it would stay updating forever. So I go read online and try to use western digital's data lifeguard diagnostic and it passes the S.M.A.R.T. but any test i run on it says 18-Quick Test::Read Verify Sector Ext error!. I read a post from this subreddit and find HD Tune. It ran a short scan and it passed all green, on the long scan up to now some sectors are red, it says 0.2% is damaged, the health status says ok, here is a picture http://imgur.com/w8TGi1I. I will add an image of the scan from HD Tune as soon as it's finished. The main thing I want to know is how can i fix it if it is at all possible or if I should get an RMA.
