HDD failing

I believe that Xs are UNC (uncorrectable data error). If my memory doesn't change me, it is when the HDD tries doing a sector and is unable to do so even after a few retries.

Also, check for cache on the hard drive.

Yes the X's were UNC's. Does mhdd have a cache check? I know one of the tests I ran just up and died after 3 seconds, I just can't remember what it was.
