    Default Bad sector on HDD/Replacement help

    So here is the thing. Yesterday I was copying some files from one drive to another when suddenly my pc became super slow and finally the transfer failed saying "cannot read from disk". I ran checkdisk and it did find bad sectors. Today again copying some files from the same drive, the same error occurred. So I ran HDD sentinel and it says there are 276 pending sectors. This HDD is a WD blue 1TB which I bought from Ryans around 3 months ago. Since this HDD is under warranty I can replace it right? What are the replacement steps? Feeling really scared here.

    PS: Eid Mubarak to all!!!

    go to ryans and show your problem. if the wd is available in the market then they may replace it otherwise you have to wait 15-20 days to refund less than your buying price.

    Ok thanks! Oh and I also heard that Ryans sometimes replaces a faulty HDD with a used one. True?
