P-list - normal number of bad sectors?

June 27th, 2015, 7:02

What is the normal number of bad sectors in the P-list?
There is 933 entries in p-llist of my WD10EZRX. I wonder if it's not too many.
G-list is empty.

Quite normal.
If you have more drives, check them as well, then play law of averages.
