I have a WDC WD40EZRZ-00GXCB0 4000.7 GB HDD in my desktop PC.
Crystal Disk Info ver 8.17.16 shows 2 “caution” warnings
Current pending sector cound 200
Uncorrectable sector cound 200
BUT
The Western Digital Dashboard version 3.8.2.10 I have just installed shows the drive health as normal.

Which do I believe? Are the problems reported by Crystal Disk Info serious and can I do anything about them - from the name “Uncorrectable” perhas not.

I would believe the software that reports a problem … ignorance is not bliss in this case.

Yes, and they’ll continue to get worse

Nope.

Don’t use the drive for storing any important data.

Probably the best thing you can use the drive for reliably … is a paperweight.
