It is possibly is a bug in the Intel X25 G1 firmware Intel did never fix (a similar bug in G2 was fixed). But I don't remember any related report since the G1 series was introduced in 2009(!).
It is possibly not a smartmontools bug, except if the problem did not occur with older versions. Please test if '-F nologdir' changes anything. If not, test whether another problem occurs if '-l selftest' is not specified: Don't use '-a' in smartd.conf, use '-H -f -t -l error' instead. All that could be done in smartmontools is to add another -F ( --firmwarebug) option to suppress accesses to self-test log. If desired, please create a ticket upstream. But I'm not sure whether this enhancement is worth the (non-trivial) effort for a single SSD series introduced 6+ years ago. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1471462 Title: On bootup smartd reports FailedReadSmartSelfTestLog but there is no hardware problem To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/smartmontools/+bug/1471462/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
