I'm monitoring HDD S.M.A.R.T. information on my debian box via the excellent "smartsuite".
I'm getting attribute 201 errors, where 201 is an "unknown" or "reserved" attribute. These started in the last couple months and are intermittent, sometimes more than once a day and sometimes multiple days without an error.
I'm unable to determine what S.M.A.R.T. attribute 201 means on the Maxtor drive in my serverbeach debian box. . . Everything appears to be sailing along fine, but I want to make sure to catch any errors ahead of time- that's what hardware monitoring is for, no?
Is this a problem? smartctl information is attached below. . .
