Re: Smartd message: What does it mean?

Do not pass go. Do not collect $100. Do not dilly dally around. Get a
new drive and move over to it. Your only hope that it is something else
is the possibility of a flaky ATA cable. Betting on this is like taking
the bad odds at a craps shoot.

Hmmm...  or does it mean I need to completely
reformat or fsck this disk throughly to ensure
that it is really going bad?  I am using FC4
so I wonder if there is another reason...

I will have to chek this out.

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.
