[EdLUG] 4TB HDD showing bad blocks

Guys
My 4TB WD SATA HDD has started showing bad blocks.
It has SMART.
How do I configure it, probably with *smartctl,* to automatically map the
bad blocks when they arise to good ones elsewhere  on the drive?
In addition, if I get a list of bad blocks using *badblocks*, how can I
find the names of the files using these ad blocks ?
