ur hard disk has bad clusters.. it cannot be corrected by softwares.. if u format a drive, ubuntu will mark all the clusters which has a problem n will not write data onto it.. thus u can prevent data corruption.. it will also check to see if the bad clusters can be used, thus some bad clusters can be recovered..
unresponsiveness is caused when ubuntu is trying to access data written on bad clusters.. format ur harddisk drive by drive n reinstall ubuntu.. u can fix unresponsiveness.. -- "Freedom is the only law".
