Problem - Disk Fail or interface issue?
I am experiencing a extremely sloooooow speed on my eSATA external drive and always I/O errors.
So I decided to run a speed test with the tool combined in Ubuntu.
However I was prompted the following errors:
Error benchmarking: helper exited with exit code 1: Error reading 104857600 bytes at 104857600 from /dev/sdf when guesstimating buffer size: Input/output error
Your help is appreciated
Thanks in advance

I would also guess thats the drive.
Are you able to pull up the smart attributes on it?
smartctl --all /dev/sdf
and if you want to do a short test:
smartctl -t short /dev/sdf

Seems to be disk fail.
If I want to have all files got backed up, what is the most safe method to do that?

Yes that disk is failing and needs replacing ASAP.
I would rsync the data over, then if the drive fails you can continue if you reset it.

Sorry if not mentioned clearly. It is a external drive running on eSATA on my notebook, thus no need to use rsync
but is it safe to copy files over? When I am trying to copy files yesterday it has a f**king speed (~1KBps) well it may take a looooooong time to copy and are there anyways to safely copy it and prevent it from writing further?
