Smart status: warning sign


Recommended Posts

Hi,

I noticed on the dashboard page, I see two of my hard drives have yellow warning sign on SMART status. I did smart short self-test and they both completed without error. Do I need to worry about anything? I hope someone can help me with this.

Reallocated sectors are bad as are Current Pending Sector Reallocated. Keep an eye on those values to see if they change. If they increase at all, it's a sign the drive is on it's way out.

 

The only drives I trust with my data are those with 0 reallocated sectors and 0 current pending sector reallocated.

 

Only on Seagate drives you can mostly ignore the Command Timeout raw value.
