    I was just wondering how much to read into what it's telling me? All of my hard disks as well as my ssd have a warning on them. The SSD and hdd's are what's in my sig.

    For the SSD I get ;
    'reallocated sector count '3'. Although the media threshhold seems fine.

    For the HDD's I get;
    calibration retry count '1' (samsung f3 1tb)
    calibration retry count '2' (samsung f4 2tb)
    calibration retry count '1' (second f3, 1tb)
    spin retry count '1' (samsung f1 1tb)

    Should I be worried??

    Whilst both any drive can fail at any time & SMART is only an indicator of things (& can be completely wrong either way about how health a drive is) i *really* wouldn't worry about any of these results unless they start hugely increasing or there's some other symptom (like the clicks of death from a HDD)...


    Okay, if you look at the description in the wiki then you 'could' choose to panic...

    ...but the likelihood is that something like a power outages/forced reboots/bsods were to blame &, tbh, it would be more unusual if there were no errors at all recorded.
