1 Howdy,

3 As some know, I recently moved a LOT of data around.  Seems to have
4 stressed one of my drives.  I got a email from SMART reporting a error. 
5 It's info:

8 The following warning/error was logged by the smartd daemon:
9
10 Device: /dev/sdd [SAT], 1 Currently unreadable (pending) sectors

13 The following warning/error was logged by the smartd daemon:
14
15 Device: /dev/sdd [SAT], 1 Offline uncorrectable sectors

18 This is from smartctl.

76 The nutshell is #5 up there.  #198 was a issue until I ran the long
77 selftest.  It moved to #5 plus added 3 or 4 it seems.  According to
78 google results, it should be fine for now.  Still, a replacement drive
79 is on the way and I've unmount the drives for that LVM.  They still
80 spinning and running a selftest but nothing else should be accessing
81 them.  This is also from the selftest.

104 The one I aborted was because it was stuck on 10% for well over a day. 
105 The whole test doesn't take that long, or shouldn't anyway.  I restarted
106 it shortly after that.  I might add, the test did take many hours longer
107 than it estimated which from my past experience is quite odd.  It's
108 usually pretty accurate.  Still, it completed and shows it passed, just
109 has a boo boo on it.  I also did a file system check it fixed a couple
110 problems and a bunch of little things I see corrected often on bootup. 
111 Something about length of something.  Seems trivial. 
112
113 Given the low number and it showing it corrected that error, and then
114 passed a short and long test, is this drive "safe enough" to keep in
115 service?  I have backups just in case but just curious what others know
116 from experience.  At least this isn't one of those nasty messages that
117 the drive will die within 24 hours.  I got one of those ages ago and it
118 didn't miss it by much.  A little over 30 hours or so later, it was a
119 door stop.  It would spin but it couldn't even be seen by the BIOS. 
120 Maybe drives are getting better and SMART is getting better as well. 
121
122 Thoughts.  Replace as soon as drive arrives or wait and see?
