HDD Failing? ("Reallocated sector count has increased...")
Hi All, I'm after some help/advice please. I have a Ready NAS duo (sparc, which I think is v1), with 2 x 2TB HDDs in RAID (mirrored), however, for a looooong time now I've been getting the message...

Frontview won't necessarily tell that its failed completely. In fact it hasn't. But it is dying for sure. You can't trust a disk with hundreds (in your case thousands) of reallocated sectors.
