Vasudevan, again this is something to troubleshoot iIf your disk is
actually giving you trouble. However, I don't see any bad values here,
so unless your disk is misbehaving your probably fine. I
If your disk is actually giving you trouble, remember to troubleshoot
the power, the cables, the motherboard connection as well as the disk
itself. I just went through a nightmare of disk failures and pc crashes
before discovering I had a bad power connector on one of my disks. I'd
recommend reading the definitions of what those smart values mean to get
a handle on it. Each vendor reports things differently, but for example
"power on hours" is some representation of how many hours (or whatever
measure of time they want to use :-) ), the disk has been in use.

Does these indicate h/w problems (brand new hardware - only a few
weeks old) or tool reporting issues? Thanks much.
