To Jan Engelhardt: Your disc is not bad:
SMART overall-health self-assessment test result: PASSED
Sorry, I did not acurrately read the log, especially incorrectly assumed, that
"pending sector" is a sector waiting for relocation. It seems not to be true
(see the end of this message).
To both: S.M.A.R.T. and seagate-tools consider the disc as OK, if there are no
problems or all known problems were corrected. But S.M.A.R.T. log contains info
about these corrected errors forever.
To be 100% sure, that your disc is OK, you need:
1) Start long self test
2) See this in the log after self test completing (several hours):
SMART overall-health self-assessment test result: PASSED
Without long self test, it is possible, that there are undiscovered problems.
To Mathias Rabe: It is correct behavior.
Your smart log says nothing about failing disc. It says:
SMART overall-health self-assessment test result: PASSED
It report errors in log. It says:
When your disc was 2 days old, it failed several times to read sector 11033816
(and maybe 2 other sectors). It was corrected by smart and never appearded
again. Now your disc is considered OK by both seagate-tools and smartd.
The error mentioned disappeared for one of these two reasons:
- 37th attempt to read sector 11033816 was successfull.
- You rewrote sector 11033816 by a fresh contents.
I found no description of exact difference of "pending sector" and "reallocated
sector". Maybe "reallocated sector" is a completely dead sector allocated into
new place and "pending sector" is a sector which was dead, but after overwrite
it is usable again.
