I installed smartmontools from ports, what a great tool! However, I see 0 (zero) Reallocated_Sector_Ct ... So the hard drive seems to be okay? I attach the full output below. Is there someone knowledgeable about HD Smart information, who can possible tell me if this drive looks like if it is failing? # smartctl -a ad0 smartctl version 5.32 Copyright (C) 2002-4 Bruce Allen Home page is http://smartmontools.sourceforge.net/ === START OF INFORMATION SECTION === Device Model: Maxtor 6Y080L0 Serial Number: Y3H1TJKE Firmware Version: YAR41VW0 Device is: In smartctl database [for details use: -P show] ATA Version is: 7 ATA Standard is: ATA/ATAPI-7 T13 1532D revision 0 Local Time is: Fri Apr 29 13:52:56 2005 PDT SMART support is: Available - device has SMART capability.
