All of the data was already backed up before I started this thread. Windows is now running from that drive, though. |

Matthew Wai,
1. When SMART says the drive is bad, the drive is bad.
2. When SMART says the drive is good, it may be good.
3. When SMART says the drive is good, it may be bad.
On the balance of probabilities and the recent increase in uncorrectable errors, I would say that your drive is in category 3.
