No, I had checked that already. :/

How would I know?

This is from memory, but I ran "fsck.ext2 -c -C 0 -p -f /dev/sdb1" and
after running for a while said something like:
updating bad blocks inode XXXXXXXX; /dev/sdb1: XXXX/XXXX files
(1.6% non-contiguous), XXXXX/XXXXX blocks
So... if there were bad blocks, it didn't make a fuss about it.
I'm going to commence a destructive badblocks scan ("badblocks -b 4096
-s -w /dev/sdb1") - can badblocks be given an entire device instead of
a partition? Or does that not make sense?
