I may be living life dangerously, but I can't easily get my hands on another Samsung Spinpoint F1, and want to keep the 6 discs the same brand/model.
Today, after a disk scrubbing this morning, the error count have changed again:
Raw Read Error Rate - 3 --> 1 --> 8
Read Sector Error Rate - 3 --> 1 --> 8
Reported Uncorrect 0 --> 3 --> 10
As I can't really check these hard-drives in my Mac, and I do have an absolutely solid backup, I think I will just let happen what happens, i.e. leave it until it crashes. If/when it does so, I assume I will get a warning, and then have the choice to insert a new hard-drive?
