I have one computer that shows "ECC error rate". Its zero.
On another computer the value is called "hardware ecc recovered", and it rises each time i open something. Roundabout.
Is that an indication of something bad?
I read that this value can indicate the time between error correction, but that does not make sense, as it does not increase by an even factor.
So it appears to count error corrections.
The drive ran 700 hours, it started today at 9900, and after some things, it was at 10100.
So far it seems to only report that the error correction is working? But why is it needed that much?
The other drive ran dozens of times longer and has zero counts for that. Or is the value something else, given the name is also different?
The drive is encrypted with vera crypt
