We have a windows 2000 system that as mirror drives. This drive has 3
partitions. One of the partitions came up Failed redundancy (page file). In
the event viewer I get a message
"The device, \Device\Harddisk0\DR0, has a bad block."
I would like to reactivate the disk but I am concerned that it will fail.

Can anyone give me any advice.
Thanks

I suspect that the message you see is not "Failed Redundancy"
but rather "Cyclic Redundancy Check". If so then you should
duck for cover: Your disk may be on its way out. Clone it to
a new disk while you can!
