I have a hard drive that was having trouble opening and playing files. The files would either glitch, slow, freeze or not open at all with the error saying that "the directory did not exist". HDD programs showed errors in "current pending sector count" going from 5 to D.

It would also have trouble transferring the files over to another HDD.

I requested an advanced RMA and started a full format. During this full format, the current pending sector count started going down. Can I still RMA it if the sector count reaches 0?
