Will my NV+ need a "factory reset"?
If the increasing reallocated sector count is to be believed, my NV+v.1 soon will be needing a replacement HDD. If I'm reading this guide page correctly, I also will need to do a factory reset before...

Thank you for the answer, and for directly addressing my question.
