A desktop Seagate 320GB hard drive of mine sometimes makes a buzzing
noise.  I ran 'smartctl -t long /dev/sda' and I get:

Num  Test_Description    Status                  Remaining
LifeTime(hours)  LBA_of_first_error
# 1  Extended offline    Completed without error       00%     11740         -

Does the noise mean I need to replace the drive, or would
smartmontools tell me if there was a problem?
