I've got a problem with my HDD. I've bought it few month ago, but now, when i start my usual desktop(Xubuntu), it works very slow, and writes lots of errors to console. When i start failure recovery session(that means, no autostart applications) it works rather good. I think, it is some region-dependent error, that appears when some application uses data in broken region on HDD. I am attaching HDD SMART error log. Can somebody explain, what the problem is, and what can i do to fix it?

The drive has bad and/or weak sectors.

It is failing and should be replaced immediately.

I'll try, but first i need to find its receipt from shop. Is it possible, that HDD got broken, because i haven't fixed it in my system block? It was because i ran out of space there.
