Do you see the same SMART errors under your other distros ?

Suggestions:
1. see if BIOS has harddisk self-test (read; read-write)
2. check your hd manufacturer's web site for diagnostics/repair utility
3. $ man hdparm
   # hdparm -I /dev/sd?
   study it (I have not tried it myself ...)
   VERY DANGEROUS  according to manual !
   --make-bad-sector
   --read-sector
   --repair-sector
   --write-sector
