My hard drive got hard read errors today. Need pgm to do low level format to mark bad tracks so they are not used any more. This type utility used to come with the hard drive but not any more. Been to mfg web site, they do not have this kind of utility any more. Anybody know if there is some thing in the ports collection that will do low level format? Or maybe on the FBSD CD2 fixit disk?
