Yeah, I think you're right Peter.
I've been meaning to look up what the numbers mean in a smartd log
message. I generally see stuff like this:
Usage: Seek_Time_Performance (8) changed to 91
Usage: Temperature_Celsius (194) changed to 154, 163, 169
but I certainly hope my drive isn't 169 degrees Celsius!
It's probably in the man page somewhere, but I've been too lazy to look
it up. I just hope that the smartd devs were nice enough to make the
message of an actual imminent failure quite alarming.

Hello,
I have one RAID 1 array with two ATA hard disks. I noticed a lots of
messages
from smartd in my logs.
First, the CRC error count of hdc "goes up" and then "down". What do
you think
of this ?
SMART Usage Attribute: 199 UDMA_CRC_Error_Count changed from 195 to 199
SMART Usage Attribute: 199 UDMA_CRC_Error_Count changed from 199 to 198
Then, I have some messages regarding my first disk (hda) :
SMART Prefailure Attribute: 8 Seek_Time_Performance changed from 242
to 245
This message is repeated about ten times a day.
Do you think my disks are going to die in the next days or is smartd
confused ?
Regards,
