How to read bad blocks error message & marking of same

[DH]

Hello;
 
 
OS 4.10-2 i386 - have read man pgs for fsck and badsec & done a bit of googl'n -
 
I've begun rec'ing these error messages:
 
ad0s1a: hard error reading fsbn 141935 of 70848 - 71103 (ad0s1 bn 141935; cn 8  tn 212  sn 59 ) status=59 error=40
 
Got about 7 of these with varying values.
 
I ran Seagate's diag utility and it reported only 1 bad block.  Unfortunately ad0s1a happens to my / dir so allowing the utility to write zeros to that block hasn't sat well with me.
 
Sooo - if some one could explain the exact meaning of my error message & point me in the right direction to use these values to fix my disk problem I'd greatly appreciate it
(with many many many thanks in advance :) )
 
fsbn 141935 of 70848 - 71103 ?
 
 ad0s1 bn 141935  ?
 
cn 8 ?
