hard drive SMART error

[trenchcoatmafia]

Hi everyone,

I got problem with my hard drive. It is having SMART error. However, I still can install windows on it. Any application to recommend that can fix SMART issue. My hard drive is Saegate. Thank you for viewing and have a nice day.

Can you please post a screenshot of where it says there is a SMART error?

Enter your HDD's model number and serial number here: http://support.seagate.com/customer/en-US/warranty_validation.jsp

I strongly recommend replacing the drive. A SMART error usually means that the drive is likely to fail soon; ensure you have a backup of all data on it.

That's the point of SMART is to warn you of an actual problem with the drive. There is not an application that will fix a failing drive. If you post a picture of the error as requested, someone can tell you more about it.

A SMART error indicates something wrong with the hardware of the drive.

Some SMART attributes can be fixed, e.g. overheating, but they are normally called warnings.

Can you post a screenshot of where you found the SMART error.
