Device: /dev/sda [SAT], 8 Offline uncorrectable sectors
Smartctl tells me the problem is at LBA 2014551336 (this is a 2TB disk)
sounds bad
Here's the question: If I just reformat and restore /home from a
recent backup, will the disk automatically deal with the sectors
pending reallocation?
REALLY: throw away the disk and do not restore backups to it
be thankful that you got warned instead lsoe the disk
from one moment to another and replace it

Erase the disk thoroughly (using hdparm) and send it for warranty
repair/replace if still under warranty.
