April 23, 20224 yr Hi, Not being super familiar with HDD health stats, I have a HDD with this showing; 197 Current pending sector = 32 198 Offline uncorrectable = 32 Is this suitably bad for a warranty claim? Thanks Craig
April 23, 20224 yr Likely yes, try running a long smart test and see if it changes. A single point in time with those stats isn't very meaningful, you need a trend, so multiple data points over time, with the drive being used during that time.

Yeah this has only just happened, I have a replacement drive already ordered so I can swap it out if necessary very quickly. I ran a test yesterday and there was no change. I'm running another one now. Perhaps keep using it for another day keeping a close eye and if anything changes do the swap out right away? I have a Reallocated sector count of 1200, and Reported uncorrect at 162 as well.

Also not a good sign. Overall I would suggest this disk is a RMA candidate.
April 24, 20224 yr Author In that case I have my replacement arriving in a few hours, I'll swap out this drive, RMA and probably use the replaced drive to upgrade one of the smaller drives in the system. I've attached the report, but Unraid is saying "Self-test execution status 121 The previous self-test completed having the read element of the test failed." I'd say that's not looking good... The drive is in warranty so I'll package it up and send it back for replacement. I'm using an encrypted array so I am assuming I don't need to blank it to return it, my data is protected and unreadable? ST6000VN001-2BB186_ZR10DJK6-20220424-1245.txt
