A server is reporting a hard drive S.M.A.R.T. error. When a technician checks on the drive, however, it appears that all drives in the server are functioning normally. Which of the following is the reason for this issue?
A.
A S.M.A.R.T. error is a predictive failure notice. The drive will fail in the near future and should be replaced at the next earliest time possible
B.
A S.M.A.R.T. error is a write operation error. It has detected that the write sent to the drive was incorrectly formatted and has requested a retransmission of the write from the controller
C.
A S.M.A.R.T. error is simply a bad sector. The drive has marked the sector as bad and will continue to function properly
D.
A S.M.A.R.T. error is an ECC error. Due to error checking and correcting, the drive has corrected the missing bit and completed the write operation correctly.
Correct answer is A"
Predictive Failures
Some issues will issue a warning that a failure is in the future. An example of such a device is a hard drive that has support for Self-Monitoring, Analysis and Reporting Technology (SMART). This technology is built into most drives to determine if the device is still physically healthy or failing due to hardware issues.
