If I have a drive that has been wiped and erased and still comes up with WARNINGS and or ERRORS can it still be used to load an operating system on it???

Also how reliable would the drive be???

Thanks for any advice.

P.S. Been a long time since my last post.

As drc said, the likely recommendation is not to use it.

However if I was in a situation where I had to consider that possibility, I would at least try to diagnose what type of problem the drive may have (not all errors are caused by the drive, but can be the consequences of a problem elsewhere), and would also depend on exactly what was meant by "WARNINGS and or ERRORS" in your description.
