I have a few Seagate 7200RPM consumer-grade disks I purchased in 2008 which were in my main workstation. They recently breached their Power_On_Hours thresholds. I've recently noticed they run at about 55°C in a cool room even when idle! I assume there is increased friction in the mechanical parts as a result of wear. Such significant signs of mechanical wear strike me as a good reason to proactively replace old disks. -- Adam Piggott, Proprietor Proactive Services (Computing) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Open source business process management suite built on Java and Eclipse Turn processes into business applications with Bonita BPM Community Edition Quickly connect people, data, and systems into organized workflows Winner of BOSSIE, CODIE, OW2 and Gartner awards http://p.sf.net/sfu/Bonitasoft _______________________________________________ Smartmontools-support mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/smartmontools-support
