Reallocated Sectors 16: replace or monitor?


Recommended Posts


0x10 reallocaed sectors and zero currrent pending sectors.

I would interpred this as a warning, not a error message so far.

 

Keep an eye on it

 

Validate S.M.A.R.T. data:

use your ears: any strange noises at hdd usage?

does the system freezes temporarily without a reason?

make a write test: transfer speed matches previous speed still?

 

Which data are stored?

mission critical?

system / user data without a backup?

All those sectors were relocated in a single relocation event (atribute 0xC4).

No further relocation events appearing tend to indicate an isolated random happening, whereas repeating relocation events point to a progressively failing hdd.

Backup any mission critical info, then keep an eye on the hdd.
