Deciphering the results from my DFT that I ran

[DarrylLicke]

okay I just ran the DFT...here are the results:

Model: DTLA-307030
Serial Number: YKFC1987
Test ran: 16-11-2001

Failure Code: 0x70
Additional Code: 0x77

Technical Result Code (TRC) for RMA: 70771394


What does this all mean? Please I would like to know something beyond "It means ship it to IBM"

It means you have a bad sector on the drive. If this is the first time you have had problems, you can erase the drive in DFT and reformat it. If it occurs again, then it is degenerating and u should RMA it back to IBM. Write down the error codes and serial # of the drive, because IBM will ask for that.
