[...] Suspecting drive failure, I've tried running S.M.A.R.T. tests using GSmartControl. Attempting the extended test which requires about 6 hours, three times it has stopped saying 'User aborted', but I never touched it, and I ensured there was no power-saving that would have messed it up. Twice it only made it to 10~20%, the other time it got 80% through overnight but then bottled out again. Here's the log file: http://paste.opensuse.org/4cc41f6b
Honestly, I don't know to reliably disable all available power-saving options. Especially if the drive is connected via USB. A quick google search confirms the problem you're seeing, e.g.: https://ddumont.wordpress.com/2010/03/15/workaround-for-aborted-smart-test-f...
Use 'hdparm -B 254 /dev/sdX' for these drives (after connecting/booting). I had this in my boot.local: hdparm -B 254 /dev/disk/by-id/ata-ST3000DM001-{SERIAL_NO} You could also use the wwn-id, i.e. in your case: hdparm -B 254 /dev/disk/by-id/wwn-0x50004cf2119c074b
I know these SMART tests have a tendency to show things like 'old-age' and 'pre-fail' on almost any drive, so I don't know if that's really relevant, but does anything spring out as worrisome here? [...]
Looks fine. The "Multi_Zone_Error_Rate" raw value is not 0 but still very low.
Yep, I think that's perfectly normal for those Samsung drives, I have 5 Samsung HD204[WU]I, at least one already labeled as Seagate, but still identifying as Samsung, with Power_On_Hours between 32885 and 37979 and Multi_Zone_Error_Rate between 24 and 578. That "worst" one went from 532 at 30082hrs (2016-09-20) to 578 at 34673 when I last booted today (2017-07-21 23:31) to 579 at 34689hrs right now (2017-07-22 15:19). Oh, and it's probably the most heavily used disk too in this box.
