Patrice - while it's good to have the ability to dismiss chronic
notification warnings (in the same way you can dismiss defective
batteries warnings on laptops, for example), this is not the intention
of the bug report.

Alan's problem is that the notification that's displayed indicates drive
failure, but the SMART status is saying that the drive is healthy -
therefore the notification is being trigger erroneously, or the SMART
status is incorrect.

Just a guess, but perhaps the notification is displayed due to the drive
having a reallocated sector count >0 - but this doesn't merit a warning
(as the drive's firmware remapped the bad sector before any data loss
occurred).
