While it seems pathological, I'd leave it alone if the drive is being used for the proper workload it was designed for. The less time the heads are flying over platter surface, the better. Even though this attribute value is 001 and the threshold is 000, it's not a pre-fail attribute, just an age attribute. It's probably instigated at least as much by something that's fsyncing every ~90 seconds like the journal or rsyslog. -- Chris Murphy -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?
