Public bug reported:

"SMART Data" dialog says about Read Error Rate:

> A non-zero value indicates a problem with either the disk surface or
read/write heads.

However, value shown is apparently a raw value which can't be
interpreted in this way: http://askubuntu.com/questions/45373/is-disk-
utility-reliable

At any rate, showing a very large value along with this text and "Good"
assessment is confusing.
