I occasionally get the following message from smartd:
Offline uncorrectable sectors detected:
/dev/sdc [SAT] - 48 Time(s)
1 offline uncorrectable sectors detected
smartctl -H reports
** sdc : SMART overall-health self-assessment test result: PASSED
This is my backup drive so it is not critical to my operation. As far as I can
determine from a Google search this is just an annoyance. The drive is WDC
WD20EADS 2TB in a single-drive configuration.
Basically, this is an annoyance because it is only a single sector and the
drive is otherwise healthy. I think updating smartd.conf by adding '-U 198+ '
should suppress the warning.
