question is there an app that will let me scan a HDD and tell me what sectors are bad?

kinda like old dfrag did

I usually use:

chkdsk Z: /F /V /R /X

Replace Z: with the letter of the volume to check. You can use it on most writable media.

a fancy graphic isn't going to tell you anything more than what chkdsk would.

nor would it be any faster.

if you really want one. try spinrite
