Raw Read Error Rate Fix
answer The best answers are voted up and rise to the top Can I modify the SMART value of Raw Read Error Rate Worst Value to be greater than 1? up vote 2 down vote favorite I have a HP Pavilion g6 2136tx Laptop which was functioning correctly until one day Windows 7 Ultimate x64 couldn't boot up. Tried System Restore and Windows Startup Repair read error rate 1 tool, both of which failed. Finally removed the HDD and connected it as external to another laptop. Tried many HDD Scan SW all of which could diagnose only 1 problem: Raw Read Error Rate: Threshold Value: 51, Current Value: 1, Worst Value: 1 All the softwares predicted imminent drive failure and that all data should be backed up. Hard Drive Model: Samsung Spinpoint ST500LM012 500GB manufactured by Seagate, 5400RPM The Date of manufacture is May 2012 and the drive has never failed ever. I removed all partitions and also did a deep format of the entire disk, but the error is still there. What are the options that I have except replacing the disk? Can I modify the SMART value of Raw Read Error Rate Worst Value to be greater than 1 as I saw many manufacturers allow it be greater than 1? Is it editable and if yes, how to do it? hard-drive smart share|improve this question edited Dec 17 '14 at 12:50 asked Dec 16 '14 at 10:19 John Paul 1116 add a comment| 3 Answers 3 active oldest votes up vote 2 down vote accepted The SMART counters measure the physical/electrica
S.M.A.R.T. is the abbreviation for "Self Monitoring And Reporting Technology". It is a standard interfaceprotocol and set of the disk features that allowsdisk to check its status and raw read error rate fail report it to a host system. S.M.A.R.T. information consists of "attributes", each raw read error rate 1 one describing some particular aspect of drive condition. Some attributes may be designated "life-critical", which implies that the corresponding raw read error rate western digital parameters are more important than other ones. Three values are associated with each S.M.A.R.T. attribute: "Normalized value", commonly referred to as just "value". This is a most universal measurement, on http://superuser.com/questions/853177/can-i-modify-the-smart-value-of-raw-read-error-rate-worst-value-to-be-greater-th the scale from 0 (bad) to some maximum (good) value. Maximum values are typically 100, 200 or 253. Rule of thumb is: high values are good, low values are bad. "Threshold" - the minimum normalized value limit for the attribute. If the normalized value falls below the threshold, the disk is considered defective and should be replaced under warranty. This situation is http://www.z-a-recovery.com/manual/smart.aspx called "T.E.C." (Threshold Exceeded Condition). "Raw value" - the value of the attribute as it is tracked by the device, before any normalization takes place. Some raw numbers provide valuable insight when properly interpreted. These cases will be discussed later on. Raw values are typically listed in hexadecimal numbers. Most common S.M.A.R.T. attributes reference Note that not all of the attributes are present on all drives. Some attributes are of similar meaning (just counted differently), so only one of them will normally be monitored by the drive. Some require special sensors (e.g. temperature or G-loads monitoring). The decision about which attributes should be implemented is up to the drive vendor. Along the same lines the interpretation of raw values depends heavily on the manufacturer. Critical device status attributes Reallocated sectors count Indicates how many defective sectors were discovered on the drive and remapped using a spare sectors pool. Low values in absence of other fault indications point to the disk surface problem. Raw value indicates the exact number of such sectors. Current pending sectors count Indicates how many suspected defective sectors are

Oct 1, 2011 #1 Hellhawk n00bie Messages: 61 Joined: Oct 18, 2004 Ok, I need some insight read error here and perhaps someone here can offer it. I had an HD go bad on my home server (a WD Green 1.5 TB was showing 1445 pending bad sectors in SMART, so I filed for an RMA). So no problems there. However this got me into a rather paranoid state of mind and so I decided to start looking at all the SMART data read error rate on all my systems and checking the drives. Long story short, my new 1.5 TB Caviar Black on my i7 system is showing potential errors. I've been researching this for almost 2 days now and I think I've driven myself to the point of insanity. At this point I may just RMA the drive for piece of mind but part of me is curious if I'm over-reacting. With that said, how much weight should be given to the fields: Raw Read Error Rate and Write Error Rate? Both of those fields have increased data values, 5 & 22 respectively. The current and worst values for both (200) is unchanged, but the raw value is 5 and 22. Now the threshold for the Raw Read is 51 and if I understand how this works, the current value of 200 will decrease and if it ever falls to 51 or below, there's a problem? So then, where does the data value come into place? I've done two surface scans and each time, the Raw Read Error Rate has increased (though the drive passes fine).
