Reallocated_Sector_Ct 0x0033 098 098 010 Pre-fail Always - 20

I'm replacing a disk that currently has a relocation count of 26.

stats aside, you replace a clicking disk regardless of what the SMART data says. I was just curious to see if it actually picked up the errors.

I see you are using ubuntu, if you were using windows vista or windows 7 windows will read the smart data off the disk and if it sees things going south it will prompt you to back up your data and replace the disk before it crashes.

I thought that was pretty slick.

I've still found good ole norton ghost to be the best disk cloning software

ALSO... SAMSUNG SP2014N ? is that an old ATA133 IDE drive? yea time to upgrade to some SATA buddy! :-P
