How important is a warning about retired block count in SMART? There are no other warnings apart from retired block count of 73. I would think it's best to replace the disk to be on the safe side but it's not something I've seen before.

It's a SK hynix 250gb drive. I'm not a fan of these SSD's having had a few fail in the past.

I can't initialise the drive now. I'm going to replace it..
