I remember it been very slow. I think it also had a high cpu load, am I right?
It's varying between 1.6% and 2.4%.
Badblocks on the WD Green AV HD has reached 41.8% completion with (0/0/0 errors) in 51:51:00.
Badblocks 1.42.11 on the WD Green AV HD has reached 51.26% completion with (4/0/0 errors) in 65:25:00, 4 bad sectors in sequence, but the log's block numbers have me somewhat perplexed. The output was continuing with 0/0/0 until well after 41.8% was reached. Now the log shows: 984662252 984662253 984662254 984662255 As I didn't specify -b4096 (and should have, given its sloth), those numbers look like they must be badblocks' own default 1024b block size numbers rather than logical sector numbers or filesystem block numbers, not really what I would expect it to log on a filesystem formatted with 4k block size (as tune2fs reports). # fdisk -l Disk /dev/sdc: 2000.4 GB, 2000398934016 bytes, 3907029168 sectors Units = sectors of 1 * 512 = 512 bytes Sector size (logical/physical): 512 bytes / 4096 bytes I/O size (minimum/optimal): 4096 bytes / 4096 bytes Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System /dev/sdc1 4096 3907029167 1953512536 83 Linux Is it possible to know whether 1 or 2 4k physical sectors comprise the logged group? Something else doesn't make sense. Tune2fs reports lifetime writes of 1223GB, but the 1863GiB filesystem is 93% full, and certainly has had many files replaced over its 5 year installed life. I would expect lifetime writes to be somewhere in the 1.5-3X filesystem size range if not more. Another thing: I don't see in the badblocks man page what the components of (#/#/#) are supposed to represent. :-( -- "The wise are known for their understanding, and pleasant words are persuasive."
