"Reallocated sector count has increased" email notification

I could see how you could lose data to a reallocated sector when using a single disk. One of the benefits of using a RAID is that you can have parity spread out across your drives so that in most cases loss of an entire drive wouldn't cause actual information loss. What RAID do you have setup on your Pro Pioneer?

I am running X-RAID2, 4 disks with dual redundancy. I do not recall all the details (it's been two years since I set this bad boy up), but I think this setup allows any two disks to die and I still have all my data intact. Is this correct?

Is there a relatively easy way to pinpoint what sector got reallocated and 'see' what data this involves (in turn, see if the data is corrupt OR it got moved successfully) ?

Just a note - I took a gander at the seagate.com/warranty page just now. It looks like I may still have to run a diagnostic against the disk in question using Seagate's tools before I can submit the disk for a warranty replacement. Does anyone have experience with this part of the warranty process? IF I am getting the Reallocated sector error email from the RNPP, does this mean Seagate's tools will find same issues?
