However the NAS is critically ** on the integrity of its Hard Drives so it makes sense to offer early warning of failure if possible. If it can not read the data, the sector becomes a ‘Pending Sector’ and the. Pre-emptive replacement of a failing HD is a much better idea! This is not new new technology, there are many such utilities available for PCs (I use Hard Disk Sentinel Prof on my Windows box) so it should be simple enough to implement. At present only information for hard disks that have already failed (or when some SMART parameter has already exceeded threshold level) are reported - and it's a bit late then. Some drives run for years with reallocated sectors, but just like with a car with a continuing rattle or whine, it does mean that 'something' is not right. From this data a predicted (statistical) time-to-failure estimate can then be calculated and flagged to the user which would be very useful for early detection of a HD likely to fail. The reallocated sectors means that some sectors on your drive arte too weak to hold data properly, and have been marked as 'Do Not Use'. Make your Maxtor 541DX hard disk drive as good as new by having bad sectors fixed with the help of this powerful software application.

Windows Hard Disk Sentinel Rar Repair Tool Free to try. All that is required is to continuously log some of the parameters, particularly Current Pending Sector Count, Reallocated Sectors Count, Off-Line Uncorrectable Sector Count - and also spin-up and other read/write/seek errors. Hard Disk Sentinel Free to try Monitor, detect, test, diagnose and repair hard disk drive problems, performance degradation, and failures. I would like better status reporting using the SMART information already available via the GUI.
