[QUOTE="Slydude, post: 1534782, member: 131855"] That's not necessarily an indication that there isn't something wrong. I had a drive in an '08 Mac Pro fail suddenly. Right until the day it quite the S.M.A.R.T .status tested as OK. Then suddenly numerous failures appeared. I found out later that [URL="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/S.M.A.R.T"]there are a large number of possible test parameters [/URL] and [URL="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_S.M.A.R.T._tools"]not all utilities test all available S.M.A.R.T parameters[/URL].
