Thanks Phil. So, I suppose then the final diagnosis of my issue was that the bad sector occurred in a non-raid portion of the drive, which is why it was never read from or written to, and hence never corrected. BTW, my reallocated sector count remains at 0 on that drive, but whatever - maybe that's because there was no data to reallocate (though i would think it would physically reallocate some sectors regardless). Also, I keep getting Rebuild99 events on /dev/md0. But, I think that, when I have time, I'll add a drive for raid6, fail out sda, write it with 0's, update it's firmware (apparently seagate released one for these drives), and re-add it. Thanks, allie
