How should I understand Current Pending Sector Count in . . . Description Current Pending Sector Count S M A R T parameter is a critical parameter and indicates the current count of unstable sectors (waiting for remapping) The raw value of this attribute indicates the total number of sectors waiting for remapping Later, when some of these sectors are read successfully, the value is decreased
How do I reduce pending sector count as reported by SMART? My 8TB Western Digital HDD is showing errors in SMART id 197: Current Pending Sector Count (Value=416, normalized=100) How can I reduce this? (The SMART fields are readable in e g Ubuntu live CD
Reallocate sector count, do I need to worry?

How to force a remap of sectors reported in S. M. A. R. T C5 (Current . . . So assuming a 512-byte sector hard drive, 12 KB of ‘Pending Sectors’ or in this example 12KB marked by the OS as ‘bad sectors’, that would correspond to decimal 24 or hexadecimal 0x18 as would be shown by a S M A R T disk utility such as Crystal Disk Information: ID Attribute Name Current Worst Threshold Raw
What do the current, worst, and threshold SMART values mean? Why is Uncorrectable Sector Count being displayed as caution? You need to look at the raw value (8) in this case There have been 8 events The raw value of this attribute indicates the total number of uncorrectable errors when reading writing a sector In this particular case, I would keep an eye on the value and if it continues to increase then replace the drive: This is a critical parameter
smart - hard drive pending sector count - Super User Pending Sector Count was about 2000 when I started keeping an eye on it 2 weeks ago I have never noticed any problems with the disk If it makes any difference, I have a Dell M1530 dual boot Vista-Ubuntu The hard drive is a Samsung HM160HI Edit: Apparently half the problem was that I didn't (still somewhat don't) know how to interpret the data

How to force Remap Current Pending Sector Count - Super User Remapping the sector would not be a good idea because this would prevent recovery of it's data if a later read operation were to succeed Instead the drive makes a note of the bad sector and waits for one of 2 events to occur The "Current Pending Sector Count" is a count of such sectors
