C5 Current Pending Sector - fixed?

October 11th, 2016, 15:59

Hello,

My system reported the SMART warning: C5 Current Pending Sector (please see the attachment).
I low formated this drive with zeros, because I was going to send it back to re-seller, but this error disappeared.

What does it mean? The wrong sector will not longer be used? Can I rely on this drive?

Thank you in advance.
