This is wrong.  The most useful thing SMART can do is tell the drives to
run a self test and tell you what the result was.  IIRC,

    smartctl /dev/sda -d sat -t short
    smartctl /dev/sda -d sat -l selftest

If it passes short and long tests it's probably OK.
If it fails a short test you should think about replacing it.

I also heartily second Russell's suggestion, viz. do compiles on
rack-mounted servers, not laptops.
