Perhaps try a few FSCKs on the file system and see if that helps. If you have a defect on the disk you can do as you suggest and tag the errors. Disk space is so cheap, if you have defects on the disk, you might consider getting a new disk and replacing the bad one. I don't tolerate any errors on disks because losing a disk ruins my day.
I'm not fully understanding if you have a file system error or a disk flaw. It sounds like you believe the disk has a flaw. Well, if you do, then you may be safer in replacing it. Others may have a better suggestion. I always replace disks with surface flaws..... My Zero Tolerance for Disk Errors Policy
On the other hand, if the error is in the file system, you can repair this. So, the key is finding out (for sure) if you have a disk flaw or a file system error.
