Hi,
at trying to clone or create image I get the error. The source HDD has many bad sectors.
Every time while HDD connecting I get message that HDD has to be checked, but after checking nothing changes.
Is there any option nevertheless to copy such HDD?
While HDD connecting it takes longer, but after approx. 1 min. I can see in windows volume, folders and open many files. But if I try to copy at some files it goes stuck. Probably because these are damaged.
But I can see folders and I would like to copy also the file structure.
Thanks in advance!
Alexander
If you would like to refer to this comment somewhere else in this project, copy and paste the following link:
It the source disk has many bad sectors, I suggest you try ddrescue instead of Clonezilla.
Just google "ddrescue bad sectors" then you should be able to find some info.
