Reallocated sector count increasing
Heya all
I am receiving the automated emails virtually every day advising that my Reallocated sector count is increasing on disk 2. I was wondering if there is anything that can be done to 'save' the hard drive, or is it definitely time for a new one?
Would this type of issue be covered under the hdd's manufactures warranty?
I have a ReadyNAS Duo (v1) running RAIDiator 4.1.10 [1.00a043]
The 2 HDDs are 1.5TB Western Digital Greens (yes yes, i know i know....they werent a great choice to start with)

If i have to replace the HDDs, i will probably replace both at the same time with WD Reds (2TB) as these seem to be the popular go-to NAS HDDs these days from what i can gather?
(it just wouldnt seem right having a 2TB Red running alongside a 1.5TB Green, heh)
