I am trying to run bad blocks on macOS High Sierra 10.13.6. I installed bad blocks using macports. I keep encountering errors when attempting to run it and I am not sure how to even get bad blocks running
sudo badblocks -c 4096 -s -w -o /Users/mcbeav/Desktop/blocks.txt /dev/disk0s2
This keeps returning the error
badblocks: Resource busy while trying to determine device size
If I try
sudo badblocks -c 4096 -s -w -o /Users/mcbeav/Desktop/blocks.txt /dev/disk0
I get the error
badblocks: Value too large to be stored in data type invalid end block (7813820416): must be 32-bit value
terminal badblocks

Are you sure about using the-wparameter? Thebadblocksman page advises not to use it on an existing file system.

Does your filesystem contain an NFS Mount?

You should try using dumpe2fs. Or use a Linux live CD/USB, with persistence and use badblocks on the unmounted drive. As using badblocks on a mounted drive is not going to work properly.
dumpe2fs -b /dev/sda
Note remember to use the path to your drive, as it may differ from my example.
