Tripredacus Posted October 14, 2015 Share Posted October 14, 2015 One of my disks is showing a caution. Should I be replacing this disk or just keep an eye on it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cdob Posted October 14, 2015 Share Posted October 14, 2015 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? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dencorso Posted October 14, 2015 Share Posted October 14, 2015 +1All 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.

Tripredacus Posted October 15, 2015 Author Share Posted October 15, 2015 It primarily acts as my backup, as it was the primary HDD in my old computer. I will back it up this weekend just in case. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
