I have run these commands in elevated cmd: diskpartĪnd the formatting takes forever. I will replace the disk if there are physical bad sectors. I think this is possibly logical bad sector or failure in the USB convertor chip.


During last week nothing can physically harm my disk happened. Step 1: use short cut key: WIN+R to open run box. Initialize a disk from command line diskpart is fast and easy, the following commands with help. DISKPART> active (if this is the boot partition) DISKPART> format fsntfs label (name) quick. Initializing Windows Disks with DiskPart. DISKPART> convert mbr (or gpt) DISKPART> create partition primary.

I am currently formatting my external 1863 GiB HDD, because I had found out there were many bad sectors, however the numbers of the cylinders where the bad sectors are located change everytime I run a test, no filesystem corruptions were found, no corrupt files, and when I just run the tests merely a week ago, the disk was fine. Show you how to use Diskpart to convert RAW to NTFS, fix RAW partition.If the files stored is important in the RAW partition, we have to recover data from RA. DISKPART> select disk (id) DISKPART> online disk (if the disk is not online) DISKPART> attributes disk clear readonly.
