Now, 3 totally failed the diagnostics for an unrelated reason, but for the 1 that didn't, the WD Diagnostic tool seems perfectly happy with that sector count it reports that the drive passes all tests. Minor issue: at least 4 of the 6 drives give me a SMART result of Reallocated Sector Count: 200. I mean, why not check and see how they're doing? Especially now that I have a spare machine with internal SATA bays, so a full surface scan takes 6hrs rather than 25hrs like it did with the USB2 dock. There's no data on the array (it's about to become the backup of another FreeNAS box), and I decided to run all 6 WD Green 2TB EADS drives through the WD Data Lifeguard Diagnostics suite. I recently brought down my first FreeNAS box to replace a disk it was reporting as bad. Question CrystalDiskInfo from a hdd used for mining. Question CrystalDiskInfo displays Caution with IDs being yellow, should I replace my HDD?
Question Is my hard drive showing signs of dying? Question NVMe SSD not showing transfer mode on CrystalDiskInfo Since you cant get it replaced, id just use it but knowing that every important data you save on it has to be backed up very soon because its probably not as reliable as before. So the point here is that your HD now is at risk, could work fine for years without any problem if you're lucky, could happen what happened to me and work for a while, or could just have a total failure right away. It was the HD on one of my backup pcs (always on tho) and I can tell you that it kept working for over 2 years after that, in which the number of sectors kept gettin higher, until one day the pc rebooted itself and would still work but windows would take half an hour to start because the drive had a lot of problems. From experience, I've had something like that happen to me before, a drive that started with a pending sector, then got fixed, then after some time it got worse again and the number was higher. No one can give you a clear answer because ALL drives in the end will fail, its not a matter of IF, but a matter of WHEN.
