How many BAD BLK?

[Alberto Candel]

How many bad flash blocks does your Prime have? I have one unit with 12 and another one with 6. I wonder if this is such a significant number that may affect the performance of the Prime.

To check, you hold down C F O while turning the unit on, then run the test by pushing key 5 (Evaluation), then key 4 (CHK Bad Flash).

PS. I have found a related post in the old HP forum, but not much follow up on it.
