I think the question would have been better phrased as, does W10 reorganize failed sectors?

As I understand it, the drive's firmware should recognise these sectors and re-map the drive - a surfeit of sectors being part of the manufacturer's deal, but does the OS play a part in all this?

Such is my losing streak a the moment, I'm loath to put this to the test with probing software on a machine I use 10 hours a day. For example, today, having found a classic dry joint in my BMW's key fob, it worked - for one drive, and is now as dead as a Do-do. Ye gods are against me.
