Repartition Bad Drive is free utility from Abstradrome which is intended to isolate unrecoverable bad sectors from partitions. If HDD Regenerator reports that bad sectors cannot be regenerated, then the hard drive contains unrecoverable bad sectors. Although we do not recommend using such hard drives*, however in some cases the hard drive may contain unrecoverable bad sectors, but work stable. If you want to use such hard drive to store NOT important data**, you should isolate bad sectors from data. Repartition Bad Drive utility is intended to repartition bad hard drives in such way so that the bad sectors will be isolated from partitions. The only requirement before repartitioning is that your hard drive should NOT contain any useful data!***

* If your hard drive contains unrecoverable bad sectors, replace it as soon as possible. In no circumstances store any important information on the hard drive which was not regenerated successfully and contains unrecoverable bad sectors!

** For example, to store files downloaded from internet, which can be re-downloaded even if the hard drive fails, or to store ISO images of your DVDs, to avoid inserting DVDs each time you need to use them. In other words, to store any NOT important data that can be easily restored even if the hard drive completely fails.
