How does this manifest after all? And is caused by what? Is there possibility for any brand to suffer from so called bad sectors? Brands as Seagate? Most people are saying that Seagate is the most durable hard disk drive on the market and I got one at my home that got the bad sectors. How to eliminate these? Thanks

Bad Sectors on a hard drive do appear because of the possible stronger magnetic pulse, or because a HI-FI stereo, non-multimedia speaker near to it. Or Bad sectors show or represents them selves like such, and they are nothing but a some ad-aware or malware default procedure. In every case you should try first with the low level format. After that you ll know what to do. are you going to build one partition for isolated and corrupted clusters, or you wont.
