Eh... I'm not quite that desperate, yet. I HAVE already made a complete backup of everything, just in case, and plan to make a DD image this weekend. I'm pretty sure though that Spinrite fixed the problem, and marked the sectors unusable. Disks are cheap, but it's the days of time required to move everything over to a new hard drive that I would dread. :-)
