ssd / smart question
SMART is warning a lot about a couple week old OCZ SSD. This is my first SSD, and I don't know if this is normal or I have a defective drive. Looks broken to me, but...
It's connected to an Asus AT3CG-I mobo.
Some output from webmin -- smart's writing in the logs quite a bit, too, about uncorrectable errors and such:
