Almost every EIDE or SATA hard disk includes S.M.A.R.T. data. That information is collected
by the drive itself and contains data that the manufacturer considered relevant to check reliability.
The data is made up of several attributes that have a current value, a worst one, a threshold, some raw data,
and some flags. Basically, when any attribute's current value is below its threshold, the hard disk is
considered unreliable and likely to fail. By using several techniques, this report tries to give a wider
range of information, basing its analysis on advanced comparisons with normal values based on real
hard disks and on expert-like checks. The final results are not to be taken as an absolute truth, but
they are almost as good as a professional expert advice about your hard disk status.
Your hard disk is a ST3160812A with firmware 3.AAJ.
The average temperature for this hard disk model is 35°C (min=27°C max=44°C) and yours is 41°C.
All the attributes of your hard disk are above the S.M.A.R.T. thresholds set by the manufacturer. This is good.
BLOCKING ISSUE : your hard disk has 65535 pending sectors (this value is very large and your hard disk should be replaced). Those are sectors that couldn't be properly read and that the hard disk logic is waiting for a write operation to try to remap to a spare sector (if available). According to the Reallocated Sector Count attribute, your hard disk seems to have available spare sectors. A simple disk surface scan won't be enough to force the remap operation. You need a read/write surface scan to remap the sector. The best option should be a tool that knows about what should be read from that sector so that it has some option to apply the best fix to the missing data.
BLOCKING ISSUE : your hard disk has 65535 offline uncorrectable sectors (this value is very large and your hard disk should be replaced). Those are sectors that an offline scanning found as unreadable. Offline scanning is a process that can be automatically started by the hard disk logic when a long enough idle period is detected or that can be forced by some tool. Those unreadable sectors are identified and the hard disk logic is waiting for a write command that will overwrite them to try to remap them to spare sectors (if available).

NOTE : your hard disk Power Cycle Count attribute current value (99) is below the normal range (100 - 100) reported for your specific hard disk model. Basically your hard disk was power cycled more times than the maximum number the average hard disk was. Power cycles put some stress on the hard disk mechanic. Sometimes power cycles can be caused by a loose hard disk power connector. Make sure it is properly fastened.
The overall fitness for this drive is 0%.
The overall performance for this drive is 93%.
