Turns out that the LBA value is likely garbage, given the
size of your drive (> 128 GiBytes):

Quoting the smartctl man page:

(Because of the limitations of the SMART
              error log, if the LBA is greater than 0xfffffff, then =
either no
              error log entry will be made, or the error log entry will =
have
              an incorrect LBA.  This may happen for drives with a =
capacity
              greater than 128 GiB or 137 GB.)

Also, the more expanded material about UNC is:

              UNC (UNCorrectable): data is uncorrectable.  This refers =
to data
              which has been read from the disk, but for which the Error
              Checking and Correction (ECC) codes are inconsistent.  In
              effect, this means that the data can not be read.
