Drashna, I have a 8TB drive about 75% full that is damaged according to Stablebit Scanner. It has about 9,173,295 sectors that are unreadable.
If I have put the Stablebit Scanner Balancer add-in to the top, selected the options Move unduplicated and duplicated files out of damaged drives, shouldn't it automatically "remove" all data from the drive and put it on other drives?
I ask because when I select "Remove drive" it goes for about an hour then reports an error "device not accessible."
The only thing that pains me about your amazing software is this situation - removing a drive. Usually if a drive needs removed there's something wrong with it and getting the data off of it is painful. I can add a letter to it then manually copy it over but inevitably it gets added back to the pool because Drivepool still thinks it is (since I couldnt' remove it via Drivepool due to whatever fault that causes it to be flaky.)
