Increasing reallocated sector count but SMART says good...
Hey I swapped out one of the disks in my Ultra2 a couple of weeks ago because of the following warnings: Detected increasing reallocated sector count[14762] on disk 2 [ST32000542AS, 5XW1F84...
I'd also suggest the write-zeros test (which is destructive, but shouldn't matter). It's under advanced.
Your smart report is not reporting addresses, it is reporting values. Some vendors define bit-fields for some parameters(e.g, the "1" might mean something else). It's only 65542 btw (small typo in your post). It is plausible that it is a simple count.
Not sure if seatools reports the smart values or not - you might poke around and see if you can find them. There are other tools (acronis disk monitor is a free download, though you do need to leave your email address).
