The drive was purchased on Monday 7/13/09. And smartctl -A /dev/sdf1 produces:
smartctl version 5.38 [x86_64-redhat-linux-gnu] Copyright (C) 2002-8 Bruce Allen Home page is http://smartmontools.sourceforge.net/ on F9 and smartctl version 5.38 [x86_64-redhat-linux-gnu] Copyright (C) 2002-8 Bruce Allen Home page is http://smartmontools.sourceforge.net/ on F11. I suspect the popup regarding disk failure is bogus.
