Not sure where else to put this, but has anyone else ran the badblocks command on a 2TB drive? I've been running it as follows:
badblocks -wvs /dev/sda
This is a brand new drive and apparently the "Testing with pattern" stage went by pretty quick, however now I'm on the "Reading and comparing" stage and it's taking forever. Every so often it lists off a rather large number followed by the time elapsed.
At the same time I'm running badblocks on an older 200GB drive with bad sectors and it's already on the 2nd pass with no similar listing as the new drive. According to dmesg I'm getting these messages:

The new drive is a SATA drive if that makes any difference... this is running off of the latest systemrescueCD distro...
