<p>Hi we forward the answer of micha to asses our smart error.<br>

us and stay in the loop for making an appointment?<br>
maybe we can have a look together before we ask her advice.<br>

<div>hey!</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>sorry for being so late with the response... my first
week back in nyc has been crazy busy with work and seeing
people but things are finally calming down.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>SO! UNCORRECTABLE SECTORS! This is generally a really bad
sign and shows that the hard drive is starting to degrade.
If you ARE NOT using some sort of RAID system where your
drives are redundant, I would IMMEDIATELY backup the data on
the drive and start finding a replacement. It is only a
matter of time before that drive dies.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>If you ARE using RAID and would rather keep that drive
alive as long as possible, you can isolate the blocks and
attempt to reset them. This will trigger the firmware on the
hard drive to either a) repair the blocks or b) choose to
not use them for future storage. Smartmon's documentation
has a good tutorial on how to do this... I recommend going
through the whole thing and BACKING UP your drive before
attempting the fix: <a

<div><br>
</div>
<div>Before any of this though, it may be good to run a
smartmon long test to verify the results of the short test.
You can do this by running `sudo smartctl -t long /dev/sdb`.
You can get the results with `sudo smartctl -a /dev/sdc`,
noting that a long test can take a couple hours to complete.
This is a good page for basic smartmon usage: <a

<div><br>
</div>
<div>Also, if you are hungry for more drives, I have an extra
Western Digital RED 8TB (one of these: <a

moz-do-not-send="true" class="moz-txt-link-freetext">https://aphnetworks.com/reviews/western-digital-red-wd80efzx-8tb</a>).
I can ship it to you when I get back to france on the 18th.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Anyway, I'd be happy to do a little debugging session
together this coming week if you'd like!<br>
