I'm assuming a reallocated sector count of 64,712 is hilariously bad!

is this the worst??:

I'm new to Unraid and this is a test rig at the mo, with no data on there to lose. Have been watching the awesome @SpaceInvaderOne on YT (Total Legend) and playing with the preclear plugin.

I had to mute the Telegram bot i set up as it spent the last day and a half relentlessly spamming me with notifications. The other drives i pre-cleared were done just fine but this one, the preclear log suggests it gave up at quarter past one this morning:

at this point the reallocated sector count was 15,624, but my Telegram notifications show the process was still going after half past five this morning, and show the count continued way past 15,624 to the 64k range, where it is now.

Am just wondering how dreadful the state of the drive is, and why the preclear log suggests the process ended before it actually did. any comments or observations from the community would be welcome. 😃

    Well, it looks like you already know the answer - it's an actively deteriorating drive that should be replaced ASAP.
