Hi Folks,

Trying to understand this message, any ideas?

This email was generated by the smartd daemon running on:

  host name: xxx.xxx.com
 DNS domain: xxx.com
 NIS domain: (none)

The following warning/error was logged by the smartd daemon:
Device: /dev/hdb, 14 Currently unreadable (pending) sectors
For details see host's SYSLOG (default: /var/log/messages).

It means you have 14 bad sectors on your /dev/hdb hard drive. It also means it is time to buy another drive and copy your data over to it.
