Software vs. Hardware

by fraggasaurusrex . Updated 22 years, 5 months ago

Is it possible to aquire HD damage (bad blocks of HD space) by installing what is known to be corrupt software? Can bad data actually harm a harddrive? Not virus infected data , or the like , just simply corrupted(incomplete or improperly comiled ) files . I dont really need to know how often it may occur if it can . . . just whether its possible or not . Thank you .
