That seems somewhat high.. Ah sorry to misinterpret the content:), its a quiet new piece of hardware (= at=20 most ~1.5 month old) and "Reallocated_Event_Count" constantly increases=20 (currently its increased to 313) and although i'm not 100 percent sure thes= e=20 errors only occured with kernels > 2.6.18 (or 2.6.18 didn't report these=20 cause according to kern.log these only visible with 2.6.22+)=20 We bought 3 HP Pavillon dv2385ea and one of them only runs with 2.6.18 and = its=20 smartctl output follows as a reference; smartctl version 5.37 [i686-pc-linux-gnu] Copyright (C) 2002-6 Bruce Allen Home page is http://smartmontools.sourceforge.net/ =3D=3D=3D START OF INFORMATION SECTION =3D=3D=3D Device Model: SAMSUNG HM160JI Serial Number: S0W6J10P331479 =46irmware Version: AD100-16 User Capacity: 160.041.885.696 bytes Device is: In smartctl database [for details use: -P show] ATA Version is: 7 ATA Standard is: ATA/ATAPI-7 T13 1532D revision 0 Local Time is: Sun Jul 8 00:22:21 2007 EEST =3D=3D> WARNING: May need -F samsung or -F samsung2 enabled; see manual for= =20 details.

What is your suggestion in that case will i try to change the hardware=20 assuming its harware's fault or that may be regression introduced by kernel= s=20 newer than 2.6.18?
