I have a 2 day old seagate7200.7 160gig SATA and when I run HDD inspector
it tells me that its probably gonna conk out by by the 11th of this month(Its got a logging feature)
The figures it gives me are as such
Raw read error rate : 57
Spin up time : 97
Seek error rate : 60
Hardware ECC covered : 58
Now I'm no HDD expert, but some of those look bad(if not very bad).
These figures are corroborated by Speedfan also, which shows the HDD fitness level at half a bar.
It also heats up like hell, right now its at 46 deg, but its the hottest component of my computer to touch .
