[Preclear.sh results - Questions about your results? Post them here.]

Thanks for the response RobJ.  I'm going to run preclear two more times over the weekend and if everything checks out I'll install them.

 

BTW, preclear took just over 19hrs to complete both drives (in parallel).

I just completed the first preclear runs on two Seagate ST2000DM001's and had results nearly identical to khuong's.  I, too, am concerned about the near_thresh report by preclear for Spin_Retry_Count and End-to-End_Error. 

These are both brand new hdd's - why such high thresholds for these parameters?  Also, there was no diff between pre- and post- read for these values so I'm guessing it's reported in the 'Changed' summary because the values are close to the threshold values.

Thanks Joe for the excellent script!  I read the entire thread (and a few tangential ones along the way).  Your wealth of knowledge is impressive, your contribution greatly appreciated and your patience with repeat questions is commendable.  This is such a great board!
