Welcome to the CH forums.

1. Run your hard-disk manufacturer's DIAGNOSTIC program - see here.
2. Bad sectors can just HAPPEN as any disk ages, the surface breaks down eventually. If your disk is fairly new you should check on the warranty period and make a claim against the warranty if you can. Best advice is to make sure your backup is up-to-date.

Good LUCK.
