- 07:42 < longword> Yup, my scumbag 2TB Seagate drive is doing exactly what I thought it was doing
- 07:42 < longword> SMART counter for reallocated sectors wraps at 16-bit unsigned
- 07:42 < longword> Before it wraps, SMART status: FAILED
- 07:43 < longword> After it wraps, SMART status: PASSED
- 07:43 < longword> It has wrapped three times now
- 07:47 < longword> If - and only if - you read the SMART attributes while Reallocated_Sector_Ct is
- in a WHEN_FAILED state of FAILING_NOW, when the counter wraps it does mark that
- attribute with a WHEN_FAILED state of "In_the_past" - but still overall SMART
- health status: PASSED
- 07:49 < diamond> longword: wow.
- 07:49 < diamond> not so SMART
- 07:52 < longword> A less than ideal level of SMARTness
