Realocating sectors same time each day
Is this normal? (see log below)
Why does it happen at 04:00 every time? Does something happen then?
Is it a "correct" error or just a false positive?

- It is likely real, and you should replace the disk. You can check it on a PC using vendor diags if you wish.
Note that the reallocated sector count is tracked by the drive itself, the NAS is just reporting what the drive is telling it. - The NAS reads the count and sends an email out if it has increased at 4am each day.
