Hard to say. Given my experience (recently I had smart warnings on a hd, which led me to a sweaty internet hunt for meaning of my errors -in my case, it turned out better to throw it out), they look like non critical. However, do a smartctl long test to really see what's happening. m. -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
