Hitachi HDD warning

[Acronis]

Hi, I have this warning as it shown in the pictures.
I dont experience any problems with the drive,
should I expect problems, should I replace it?
Is there something to do to fix this errors?

Is this temperature too high for HDD?

Backup your data and replace the drive.

I'd keep an eye on the error attributes and consider replacing the drive if they increase on a regular basis.

One month ago I checked and count didnt increase.
Anyway, I think I will use it only as a backup drive.

Is this temperature too high for HDD? 44 celsius.

It looks like 7200 drives are less reliable and more often will experience errors?
I have 5900 hitachi drives older than this 7200 drive, and they are still working without errors.

I would aim for a temperature in the 30s, but 44C is well within the drive's specs (5c - 60C).

That said, the raw value of the temperature attribute is 0x0038000F002C. This figure consists of 3 temperatures, 0x38 (= 56C), 0xF (= 15C) and 0x2C (= 44C). I suspect that these represent the max, min, and current temperatures for the current power cycle.

Smartctl (smartmontools) is able to retrieve a temperature history from the drive, if the drive supports this feature.

Thanks, I'll check that app.
