Amarbir,

Seems like a translator problem.

It can be rebuild with a PC3K from the P-List and G-list perhaps a bad translator would probably mean a defective Firmware cause by an overflow of bad sector so if you fix Translator you should not use this drive as a daily drive you should backup your data and replace it or Backup your data make a surface scan then move the G-List to P-List and reformat the drive.

Hope it helps
