Yes, looks healthy, but you can run an extended SMART test to confirm.

I buy used drives all the time.  (Someones with many hours on them).  The amount I save is insane over a new drive.  (Enough to justify if one fails, I'd have to replace it.). Thus far I've only had one drive failure, and that was ironically one of the rare brand new drives I purchased.

Sounds like a real good experience in your particular case.

 

To everyone else - YMMV.
