NOTES:
Disk appears in good and clean working order. However, troubled sectors.
Method:
1) Disk gently cleaned with isopropyl alcohol dosed swab on both sides and dried thoroughly.
2) Bad sector re-read: 4 sectors still cannot be read.
3) Using FluxEngine media map, further spot-cleaning with isopropyl alcohol undertaken.
4) Repeated head cleanings, but still no joy with the problem sectors.
Final Result: 99.5% media recovery.
However, troubled sectors appear unused and thus no affect on end media.
