I've got a 1Tb USB disc that appears to be dying - eg it took about 10 days
(!) to run 'badblocks -nsv /dev/sdc' and it only did less than 2% in that
time. Read access became _really_ slow.
So there's definitely something amiss and I've got it offline.
There's no drama about the content as I have other backups and I'm resigned
to junking the thing, but I'm curious about the fact that smartctl doesn't
seem to report any errors. I tried a short and a long test but nothing in
there seems to be alarming - in fact it says PASSED!! - but the output is
pretty opaque and maybe I've been foxed by ambiguity. Anyone care to comment
on it?
Here it is:
