This tells me that the drive is most likely suffering from the"slow issue".

There is no way to "fix" the drive for re-use. One can "patch" it for DATA RECOVERY but the drive MUST be replaced by a new one.
You formated/re-installed so i guess data is not necessary.
There are procedures like ARCO and SELF-SCAN that you can run with specialized firmware tools like WDMarvel and SeDiv (cheaper ones) but even so it will only "retrieve" some extra life out of the drive that will die eventually very shortly....
Again, just replace the HDD and move on...
