I keep getting hard drive errors in my kernel log/dmesg that have me |
| 2 |
worried. From /var/log/kernel/current: |
| 3 |
|
| 4 |
Jan 13 11:42:31 [kernel] hda: dma_intr: status=0x59 { DriveReady SeekComplete DataRequest Error } |
| 5 |
- Last output repeated 7 times - |
| 6 |
Jan 13 11:42:39 [kernel] hda: dma_intr: error=0x40 { UncorrectableError }, LBAsect=206696214, high=12, low=5369622, sector=206695927 |
| 7 |
Jan 13 11:42:39 [kernel] ide: failed opcode was: unknown |
| 8 |
Jan 13 11:42:40 [kernel] hda: dma_intr: status=0x59 { DriveReady SeekComplete DataRequest Error } |

The drive is a 160 GB PATA Samsung. It's about two or three years |
| 12 |
old, running 24x7 (although lightly). The drive has three |
| 13 |
partitions, all are ext3. |
| 14 |
|
| 15 |
When I started seeing the above messages, I ran |
| 16 |
|
| 17 |
fsck.ext3 -f -v -c -c /dev/hda? |
| 18 |
|
| 19 |
on all three partitions. Note that the "-c" flag includes the bad |
| 20 |
blocks check. |
| 21 |
|
| 22 |
I also ran |
| 23 |
|
| 24 |
smartctl -t long /dev/hda |
| 25 |
|
| 26 |
On the drive. Apparently, an error was found (details below). I'm |
| 27 |
not sure if this drive is actually dying, though, as the following |
| 28 |
article (by the smartmontools author) suggests that one or two |
| 29 |
errors on a drive is nothing to worry about. Also, the SMART |
| 30 |
overall-health self-assessment test comes back as PASSED. |
| 31 |
|
| 32 |
http://www.linuxjournal.com/article/6983 |
| 33 |
|
| 34 |
But the constant kernel messages, along with the error in the "long" |
| 35 |
SMART test, concern me. At this point, I'm not really sure what my |
| 36 |
next steps should be, so I'm looking for any suggestions or advice. |
| 37 |
|
| 38 |
Thanks! |
