[QUOTE="chscag, post: 1416495, member: 46727"] If the hard drive is defective, it needs to be replaced. Partitioning it to find bad sectors is likely not going to work anyway. I would wait on your next pay check and have it changed out properly. Changing out a hard drive in an iMac is not for the feint of heart. It's a rather difficult job since the entire front panel display must first be removed in order to gain access to the inside of the machine. [/QUOTE]
