I just got these messages from smartmontools on my laptop. I checked the logs because the disk make a weird sound.
Device: /dev/hda, Failed SMART usage Attribute: 193 Load_Cycle_Count. Device: /dev/hda, Failed SMART usage Attribute: 193 Load_Cycle_Count. Device: /dev/hda, SMART Usage Attribute: 191 G-Sense_Error_Rate changed from 99 to 98 Device: /dev/hda, Failed SMART usage Attribute: 193 Load_Cycle_Count. I have had the Load_Cycle_Count messages before, but I have never been able to figure out what they mean, in spite of much googling. What do these messages mean and do I need to buy a new harddisk? -- René Seindal ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) http://sights.seindal.dk/ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
