    Hi ,

    I think you can see the fail of the disk. Here is the explanation of the results - values. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/S.M.A.R.T.

    But no one nows when the disk will fail. You can keep working on this disk BUT , backup your important data and don't leave important data in this disk.

    Thanks

    Well... As of today I just moved my Ubuntu Data into another partition and continuing forward. Since I don't have any backups it might be smarter to give up and let the drive be use for storage or minor data or just retire it for spare...
