Yeah it is backed up, I just happen to need to drive to expand my operations. Would be a pity if it was bad.
No errors tho, in both the short and extended tests.

If I recall correctly from the Google study, certain smart errors (don't
remember which) mean the drive will fail, but no smart errors doesn't
mean the drive is safe! The study should be easily found with a Google
search.
The OP should back-up anything important if he hasn't done so yet.

Andrei
