[Bug 477280] Re: "One or more disks are failing" from Palimpsest Disk Utility
do you still have this problem? i get a message for a disk where the spin up times is get worse, but no message for a disk that has had a few bad sectors for a long time. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/477280 Title: "One or more disks are failing" from Palimpsest Disk Utility To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-disk-utility/+bug/477280/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 477280] Re: "One or more disks are failing" from Palimpsest Disk Utility
SMART only has "passed" and "failed" for each attribute; no such thing as "warning". The number of reallocated sectors that is bad varies much from drive to drive; Palimpsest is not qualified to make up a threshold itself and apply to all drives, even when those drives' manufacturers have decided that it is fine. @Manni: For your information, the "normalized" is the current "score" for this attribute. As things get worse, the score will go down, when the score goes below the "threshold", SMART will report it as "failed". The "worst" is the worst score that the drive has gotten in the past (e.g. highest temperature, etc.), for things where the drive has subsequently improved. For Tiago's screenshot, his normalized score of 100 is very far from the threshold of 0, which means the number of reallocated sectors is still very far from being a critical problem. -- "One or more disks are failing" from Palimpsest Disk Utility https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/477280 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I have a similar issue and since the bios smart utility isn't reporting any errors, I prefer to simply rely on backups and not trust Palimpsest. What I find particularly irritating about this is that I have no idea what the utility is trying to tell me. Tiago's screenshot illustrates this nicely. I can fathom what a threshold is here, but "Normalized" and "Worst"? How do these relate to the actual value? -- "One or more disks are failing" from Palimpsest Disk Utility https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/477280 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

We have 10 notebooks (Dell Latitude E4300) all with Ubuntu 9.10 (5 32 bits, and 5 64 bits). All with this problem.
