Zero-fill it, then scan it again. If you get the same result, then there isn't anything you can do.

one more thing guys,the surface test as i showed you before says that i have slow sectors,
but i run the same test with hard disk sentinel and hd tune pro and they didnt find any problems.
is there any possibility that hddscan made a mistake?
also i made a low level format but health of the drive is still 99.
