I precleared 4 wd red disk without problems, but yesterday on fifth disk...:
Hard Disk: WD Red 4TB. After preclear it returned several errors and bad sectors:
============================================================================
** Changed attributes in files: /tmp/smart_start_sdc /tmp/smart_finish_sdc
ATTRIBUTE NEW_VAL OLD_VAL FAILURE_THRESHOLD STATUS RAW_VALUE
Raw_Read_Error_Rate = 199 100 51 ok 1620
Temperature_Celsius = 127 131 0 ok 25
No SMART attributes are FAILING_NOW
0 sectors were pending re-allocation before the start of the preclear.
148 sectors were pending re-allocation after pre-read in cycle 1 of 1.
0 sectors were pending re-allocation after zero of disk in cycle 1 of 1.
261 sectors are pending re-allocation at the end of the preclear,
a change of 261 in the number of sectors pending re-allocation.
0 sectors had been re-allocated before the start of the preclear.
0 sectors are re-allocated at the end of the preclear,
the number of sectors re-allocated did not change.
============================================================================
Is this disk safe to assign to my array?
If you think I can use it safely, what are next steps to fix pending sectors? I am not sure to understand the report, but it seems there are 216 pending sectors not fixed after preclear...
If you think it's better don't use it in my array and RMA it, the disk they send me will be a new one or a refurbished one?
Thank you in advance.
Sorry, I am newbie.
