Yes, PD 0 needs to be replaced. It has hit a threshold for bad/unrecoverable blocks and has been marked predictive failure by the SMART on the drive itself. This error cannot be corrected. Thanks

theflash1932, the link you providers sends me to a folder directory on downloads.dell.com /Pages/Drivers. Is that where you wanted to send me?
