SMART values are stored in the drive, not on some cache in the system. The bad cable caused the drive to see errors. There is no way to reset the counters in the drive. So the error counter will stay at that value, but as long as it does no longer increase, you're fine. -- [email protected] +49 171 3101372 8 years to go ! _______________________________________________ [email protected] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-stable To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[email protected]"
