I think after a certain number of those, you should start thinking about a replacement. Like with my recent issues, I had two drives with a few too many reallocated sectors. One was over 16k and the other was over 32k. They still "work", but I replaced them with WD Reds anyhow. Another drive seemed to max out the start-stop count field at 65536. Hah.
