Just give me the link for tutorial , not link of the mrt website! i know mrt website! Or maybe MRT Utra can NOT remap bad sector for WD devices?

So no one has any real solution for remaping bad sector in WD drives

What drive model ? How many bad sectors ?

If just a few move G-List to P-List and re-format.

If you have considerable amount of bad sectors run Self-Scan.

You might need to disable heads if one surface (or more) have a huge amount of bad blocks that can't fit the P-List.

thanks for your answer

My question is for all WD Drives.

how big is P-list? and how many bad sector it can contain?

yeah, you have to if you want ReMap or sheilding bad sector.
The so-called "All-in-one button " is not rigorous, different HDD has different faults, different cases has different situations.
To experienced and skillful technicans, they always need to make judgement when facing different cases, no matter how powerful tools they use.

You might need to disable heads if one surface (or more) have a huge amount of bad blocks that can't fit the P-List.

Or you can disable entire zones if bad blocks are concentrated in a particular area, but this will reduce hdd capacity.
If you have a lot of bad blocks distributed a little bit here and a little bit there on hdd surface, then you might reallocate all those in p-list (it might be necessary to increase p-list size).
Sediv is able to increase p-list size, if is needed it's possible to increase its size by reducing user area space in passport section (example you can choose to reduce 1% of entire hdd capacity).
Waqas Ali made a video tutorial on how to do that, i followed it and worked very good.
