I think that I'm also have a false positive with an Hitachi Travelstar disk on a HP530 notebook, fresh Ubuntu 9.10. Palimsest warns about inminent failure, even when current value of Reallocated_Sector_Ct (100) is way far form threshold (005): 5 Reallocated_Sector_Ct 0x0033 100 100 005 Pre-fail Always - 327697
