HDD scan results question

[Alusky]

Hey everyone, so I recently moved over to win8.1 and I moved my storage drive over from my old rig. Windows is giving me the old "windows detected a harddrive error" so I did a dskchk and came up with no errors, segatetools failed on smart and short DST but passed short and long generic test.

I ended up running HDDscan and the smart results gave me

Basically only the spin up time was giving me an error... It's a storage drive so it's not always spinning. Is this an issue or can I just ignore it?

It will get worse so don't ignore it. Replace the drive, and don't rely on just one drive for storing valuable data. You need at least two (one for backup).

The weird thing is that it's reporting 1 but the actual spin up time is fine. I've ran chkdsk and it didn't have any errors, the r/w is still the same values as it was before. Maybe this is just a false positive?

Also, there's nothing important on this hdd. I just have miscellaneous programs that I didn't want to have on my ssd.

It looks like a Samsung, but which model is it?

I would compare your SMART results against others for the same model.

Give Hard Disk Sentinel a try. Even the free version has extensive HDD and SSD diagnostics: http://www.hdsentinel.com/download.php

It's an older f3 hd502hj. The only error hddscan/hd tune/etc is the spin up time but it's spinning up just fine. All of the other smart values are the same/similar to other f3 drives, at least from what I can see.
