Hey, I was wondering if the SMART values for my seagate drive I collected by Acronis Drive Monitor show anything detrimental about my drive. I attached a photo of the report below. I know the "Spin Retry Count" can mean a problem with the power supply or motor bearing, but i am more curious about the really high values for "Read Error Rate", "Seek Error Rate", Command Timeout", "Airflow Temperature", "Temperature", or "Hardware ECC Recovered"

You need to view the numbers in hexadecimal format.

I prefer HD Sentinel or HDDScan for accessing a HDD's SMART data.

HD Sentinel (DOS / Windows / Linux):

HDDScan for Windows:

See this article for SMART info:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/S.M.A.R.T.

Seagate's Seek Error Rate, Raw Read Error Rate, and Hardware ECC Recovered attributes are counterintuitive. The following article is my attempt to make sense of them:
