I was using my computer (surfing the Web) and then XP told me delayed write failed. Then, I
loaded up HD Tune and SpeedFan separately to check SMART Status. They both showed a
failure. Here's HD tune:

I rebooted my computer, and my BIOS complained about SMART status error. I am a bit scared.
Is this a warning that my old IBM HDD (got it installed on 9/9/2001 according to my
computer history) is failing? I am currently making a Ghost 2003 image backup of the drive
to bigger drive just in case.

Can anyone please tell me what this means and if I should get a new HDD right away to
replace it? Or ways to be sure that there is really a problem?

Thank you in advance.

You should be. In spades if you dont have proper backups.

Is this a warning that my old IBM HDD (got it installed
on 9/9/2001 according to my computer history) is failing?

That it's died, actually.

I am currently making a Ghost 2003 image
backup of the drive to bigger drive just in case.

You should have done that LONG ago with a 60GXP.

Can anyone please tell me what this means

That its died, Jim/Ant.

and if I should get a new HDD right away to replace it?
Yep.

Or ways to be sure that there is really a problem?

You've got that already.

Thank you in advance.

I am using my friend's Seagate ST380011A 80 GB HDD for now. I was able to copy and restore

Thanks. I already put the drive out of commission. I will keep it handy just in case though. I
did notice Ghost 2003 was only giving me about 480 MB/sec file transfer. That's only 8 MB/sec.
That sounds slow.

The SMART attributes are reliable if they are this clear. The drive
is dying. Replace it immediately and don't trust if for anything.

I seriously doubt this HDD can be "healed". It may be possible
to prolong its dying process a bit, but it is higly likely
that it will get more bad secors and exhaust its store of
spares soon. From then one each defective secotor means data
loss.

Already done. I have the IBM HDD on my desk in case I need to restore again if the replacement
one is bad.

Ah. Well, it isn't dead yet!

It will be, those 60GXPs always do once
they have developed that many bads.

Hopefully, I will never have to know
since I am using a drive replacement.

You should have a proper backup of the files you'll slash your wrists
if you lose, you wont necessarily get that sort of warning next time.

My first time I ever seen a SMART tell me something big is bad.

Yeah, most dont see too many hard drive failures and only a
subset of those can have SMART warn as the drive is dying.

Weird, I never saw Windows say that before. I always
see something like "\Device\Harddisk1\D" in the past.

Just due to the mix of drives currently in the system.

Heh, yeah but mine took forever to die.

The class action suit was about the percentage that ended up
dead, and the incapacity of IBM to deliver a viable replacement.

 

[ANTant]

Actaully, I do back up but only my data and important files. I have been using this XP Pro.
SP2 since like 2001 with multiple motheboard upgrades (3-4?).

Yeah, most dont see too many hard drive failures and only a
subset of those can have SMART warn as the drive is dying.

What "was too late". It's still working isn't it.

Whew. Since you said it should be dead, how come it still works?

Because you obviously trolled him into saying that.
Wasn't he expected to say that when you set him up to say that?

I seriously doubt this HDD can be "healed".

Your problem.

It may be possible to prolong its dying process a bit, but it is

higly likely that it will get more bad secors

Of course it will, if you don't stop what ever it was that caused
the current ones, and that isn't necessarily the drive's fault.

and exhaust its store of spares soon.

A few 100 thousand spares to go.

From then one each defective secotor means data loss.

Utterly clueless as always.

Every bad sector means data loss whether the drive has spares left or not,
you blithering babblebot.

My first time I ever seen a SMART tell me something big is bad.

Bwahaha. 1800 relocated bad sectors, big?

S.M.A.R.T. started to complain because an attribute went below
it's treshold for some weird unexplained reason. That's all.

Your drive is confused but S.M.A.R.T. is too plain dumb to recognize it.
It goes off whenever the 'treshold exceeded' bit is set and doesn't care
what the actual numbers are.

[snip]

Heh, yeah but mine took forever to die.

"Ah. Well, it isn't dead yet!"

You are confused again. It's still 'dying'.

 

[Folkert Rienstra]

The SMART attributes are reliable

*if* they are this clear.

Which they are obviously not.

The drive is dying.

Or his power supply is.
Or the drive's SMART firmware just had a brainfart.

Replace it immediately and don't trust if for anything.

Yup, no need to check out the powersupply when babblegod
says your drive is dead.

I was using my computer (surfing the Web) and then XP told me delayed write failed. Then, I
loaded up HD Tune and SpeedFan separately to check SMART Status. They both showed a

That is weird. That is such a low (Data) count for that attribute to go from 100 to 1.
And since the threshold is 5 it must have gone from high to 1 directly or at least so
very fast that it went from 5 to 1 in just the time that it took you to check with tho-
se utes right from the moment that you noticed anything. That's not very believable.

More over, the Reallocated Event Count normalized value hasn't
even budged (still at 100), even though it too is at 1912 events.

Well, at least that's what it is intended for.

I am currently making a Ghost 2003 image backup of the drive
to bigger drive just in case.

Can anyone please tell me what this means

Probably not since you have asked questions about S.M.A.R.T. several
times before and that you show to have nothing learned from that before.

and if I should get a new HDD right away to replace it?

Rather check why this harddrive suddenly went from OK to almost dead (ac-
cording to SMART) when you haven't noticed anything yourself (except that
one instance). Surely you would have noticed 1800 bad sectors occurring before.

Or ways to be sure that there is really a problem?

The ususal, which has been explained here hundreds of times:
Check Powersupply, check temperature.

Since this seems to be a fluke I would also check for a Firmware update.

You can let DFT Low Level Format the drive and see if the reallocated count
resets (or not).

 

[Arno Wagner]

Your problem.

Of course it will, if you don't stop what ever it was that caused

Every bad sector means data loss whether the drive has spares left or not,

Fascinating on how you manage to be incompetent even at things that
are easy and quite obvious. And how you are resistant to actually
checking things. Afraid you might find out that I actually know
what I am talking about?
