Hi RC,

> Or is it a replace the drive?

Could be. Please check from the command line with the "smartctl" command:

smartctl -a /dev/sdb

This gives you the extended information about the SMART status of
/dev/sbd and should be a lot more detailed than what the GUI reports.

In my experience just a few uncorrectable sectors are about to be
expected during usage of very large drives. Drives these days are so big
that these kind of errors can't be entirely avoided. But if the number
grows and/or if there are other related errors that accumulate rapidly,
then it's time to look into replacing the drives.

Is this on one of the Aventurin{e}'s where you recently replaced the
drives? If so, then maybe you can RMA them under the warranty.
