i feel like the media isn`t downgrading because
the badblocks _arent_ physical: low-level drive
reformat doesnt show anything.
how i think it may be related to chipset/controller?
when data is transferred in udma mode, there may be
checksumming errors, and the wrong crc is being wrote
to the disk.
so when data is being accessed, bah - you are in
shit...
although, this is only a theory...
