is this drive bad?
Things I've fixed: anything from semis to crappy Chinese $2 radios, and now an IoT Dildo....
"Dude, this is Wyoming, i hopped on and sent 'er. No fucking around." -- Me
Excuse me while i do something dangerous
You must have a sad, sad boring life if you hate on people harmlessly enjoying life with an animal costume.
Sometimes you need to break shit to fix it.... Thats why my lawnmower doesn't have a deadman switch or engine brake anymore

Re: is this drive bad?
double check that. make sure it's an actual value, use hdat2 or smartctl
If that is the actual value, you have a failing drive. I don't know how it managed to survive that long, backup data!!!
Once you back up data, then you can try cloning the disk, my guess is and I have done this before with a failing toshiba drive using clonezilla, that it will most likely throw device not ready or failed to read errors and won't be clone-able.

Re: is this drive bad?
only 2 bad sectors so the drive is ok? also the uncorrectable error rate it through the roof at 1932752060422 errors as reported by smartctl, is that bad?

Re: is this drive bad?
Reallocated + Pending sectors = "Bad" Sectors
0 = OK
1-10 = Keep an eye on it
11-50 = Don't use it for anything important (swap or whatever probably OK)
51+ = Back up IMMEDIATELY and do not use
(In my opinion, anyway)
