Bad sectors should be evident in Smart tools. It might be good idea to
check it to prove/dis-proof disk issues.

=== START OF READ SMART DATA SECTION ===
SMART overall-health self-assessment test result: PASSED
I've run a few other smartctl options. I don't really know what I should
specifically be looking for. One of the results said
Offline data collection status: (0x00) Offline data collection activity
was never started.
Auto Offline Data Collection: Disabled.
Self-test execution status: ( 0) The previous self-test
routine completed
without error or no self-test has ever
been run.
Is there something I should be running?
