ext. HDD disk controll

| A bit of a tough spot there.
Whatever the result of that disk check, plan to copy the data on that disk onto another disk asap. When disk droubles start, they always bring on more.

Dammit, it seemed like the hard disk is fine though now, most things seem to be fine now though?
| The problem now is that a 2 TB HDD here costs more than the model I paid for.

| >>258572 Defraging often wears out the disks quite fast. Puts unnecessary strains on the plate motors and on the magnetic arms stepmotors. Especially in external drives it is where fragmentation happens the least as usually people put things for archival there and when things are being written there is virtually no other process acessing the disk and seeking/moving the heads elsewhere. Fragmentation happens with concurrent processes operating on the same disk.
