Hi all, This morning I woke up to a cheery smartd error message:
Device: /dev/hda, ATA error count increased from 0 to 2 This is the first time smartd has ever complained about the disk. I rebooted and fsck complained about errors on that filesystem but didn't give any chatter about repairing any. My question is, is the disk failing? Do I need to begin pursuing warranty replacement, and with what urgency?
