Suddenly my ext4 file system fell down into read-only mode. I've unmounted this disk and trieadtried to repair it, but without any success.

  1. fsckfsck tries to fix something but ends with "FILE SYSTEM WAS MODIFIED"FILE SYSTEM WAS MODIFIED, "WARNING: Filesystem still has errors"WARNING: Filesystem still has errors.
  2. mountmount fails with "failed: Structure needs cleaning"failed: Structure needs cleaning message.
  3. badblocksbadblocks tool shows several errors.
  4. smartctlsmartctl test status: read failureread failure.

Also, I've made disk image via ddrescueddrescue tool, but can't repair/mount partition from it as from hddHDD.

What I want:

  1. Mount partition and copy not damaged files.
  2. Make decision - does this HDD has physical problems, or this is only ext4 crash.?
