Hello LSE.

Please refer to the following user-guide: https://www.acronis.com/en-us/support/documentation/ATI2023/#269.html#k…

This option is available only for disk and partition backups. It lets you successfully complete a backup even if there are bad sectors on the hard disk.

We recommend that you select this check box when your hard drive is failing, for example:

  • Hard drive is making clicking or grinding noises during operation.
  • The S.M.A.R.T. system has detected hard drive issues and recommends that you back up the drive as soon as possible.

When you leave this check box cleared, the backup may fail because of possible bad sectors on the drive.

Feel free to contact if you have any questions.

Thanks.
