Posting a single thread in the most relevant forum will make it easier for members to help you and will keep the discussion in one place. This thread is being closed because it is a duplicate.

Your other thread Which files are on the given LBAs? (finding damaged files via bad sector list) indicates that you have scanned your disk and have a follow-up question.
