I have a 40gb drive that I obtained that has some i/o errors on it. Is there a way to fix this so I can load opensuse on it? Would it be worth the effort?
By "I/O errors" do you mean bad sectors? It might be possible to get the device to map them out. But what is the cash value of a 40 GB drive even if it was in perfect working order? $25US? How long do you have to work to earn that? That's how much effort it would worth to try to make that device useable, if that's even possible.
