A couple of weeks ago I upgraded to trixie.  Since then I've gotten a number of messages like Device: /dev/sda [SAT], 8 Currently unreadable (pending) sectors and Device: /dev/sda [SAT], 30 Offline uncorrectable sectors These seem to come within a day or so of a reboot, but it hasn't been long enough to know if that's a red herring.

I ran "smartctl -t offline /dev/sda", and the eventual result of "smartctl -a /dev/sda" shows

   SMART Error Log Version: 1
   No Errors Logged


which seems to indicate no problems.

I admit I'm not a smartctl wizard, but to me it seems that smartctl is contradicting itself.

Can anyone help me out?
