A few bad sectors give alot of errors even making Windows not boot or not being to able copy files and so on. Bad sectors can be repaired but are usally back after the repair. A faulty HDD does not always give a S.M.A.R.T error. ( especialy if S.M.A.R.T is not enabled in the BIOS. The only way to find out if the HDD is really broke is by checking it with the manufactures tool.
