Error when getting information for file - Input/output error
I ran rsync sudo rsync -aE --progress /mnt/seagate/dataset/RD 8* /mnt/backUp/backUp/dataset/ and pressed ctrl-c by mistake. There was a SIG-INT error whic makes sense.
But now, I am not able to access the hard disk mounted on /mnt/backUp.
Whenver I try to access my drive, it says:
This location could not be displayed. Sorry, could not display all the contents of “dataset”: Error when getting information for file '/mnt/backUp/backUp/dataset/RD 838Jun05': Input/output error
output of sudo ll is attached in the image below.
output sudo ll
I tried running :
sudo smartctl -i /dev/sde2 whose output is

Input/output error is bad news in general. It means that the drive is faulty and is unable to read and/or write data from/to the spinning plates.
If this is a new drive I and is still under warranty I suggest you return it and get a new one.
You may try command dmesg immediately after you get that I/O error and you will see a lot of kernel mumbo-jumbo about how it is unable to use the device. Not very helpful to the regular user but I am sure some kernel developer is in a position to understand it.

If your drive is formatted ntfs you might be better off attaching it to a Windows PC and let it do a full scan. There is a utilitybadbclockswhich integrates nicely with Ext2/3/4 filesystems but I don't think it would be much of a help for you. Regardless, I wouldn't trust that drive.
