Trashed disk

[Bill Wohler <wohler@newt.com>]

Folks,

  I've just noticed that I've been getting the following messages for
  the last couple of weeks.

Sep 24 00:00:28 gbr kernel: scsi0: MEDIUM ERROR on channel 0, id 2, lun
0, CDB: 0x03 00 00 00 10 00

Sep 24 00:00:28 gbr kernel: scsidisk I/O error: dev 08:11, sector 442568

  My first reaction is to toss the disk, but I thought I'd see if anyone
  on this list would offer that it is salvageable (and if so, what
  precautions would be necessary).

  It's an old Fujitsu that I bought used 2.5 years ago and it's been
  running non-stop since.
