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 ST9500325AS with firmware 0002BSM1.
The average temperature for this hard disk model is 38°C (min=27°C max=50°C) and yours is 33°C.
Troubled attributes:
WARNING : your hard disk Spin Up Time attribute current value (97) is below the normal range (98 - 99) reported for your specific hard disk model. Recently purchased hard disks that were not yet power cycled many times might experience a low value here and it wouldn't be a problem as, after some time, the value should raise towards better ones. If, on the other side, your hard disk is not that new and it was powered on several times this might mean its mechanic is getting old. According to Power Cycle Count attribute, your hard disk was powered on 3952 times and this seems to indicate that your hard disk is not brand new and that some kind of drive's mechanic poorer performance is occurring. Usually this attribute is not so relevant by itself, but it might reinforce some other deduction when looking at the global picture.
NOTE : your hard disk Power On Hours Count attribute current value (90) is below the normal range (95 - 100) reported for your specific hard disk model. Basically your hard disk was powered on for more than the maximum time the average user did. This means that either all of the reports collected are from hard disks that were not powered on for too long (this is realistic for recent models) or that your hard disk is becoming old. Usually this is not considered as a pre-failure advisory, but you should check whether you want to replace the hardware or keep an eye on its performances over time.
NOTE : your hard disk Power Cycle Count attribute current value (97) is below the normal range (99 - 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 50%.
The overall performance for this drive is 94%.

Attribute End To End Error Count is failing now! Its current value is 95, the worst value was 95 and the threshold is 99.
According to the manufacturer, this is an advisory condition.
