One method of skipping bad sectors on an iPod's drive
Authored by: sjk on Mar 09, '06 10:36:53AM

I've used Media Scanner from Intech's SpeedTools Utilities (the OEM version included with an OWC FireWire drive) to check for bad blocks. It helped me convince Apple to replace a drive with too many errors to repair. I've never tested it on an iPod drive but I don't see any reason it wouldn't work.
