So I've been running my FreeNAS box for a tad over 4 years. Looks like I might have my first failing drive. Unfortunately a changed email password resulted in me not getting automatic notifications, so I caught it by chance while in the GUI for another reason.
Just 1 sector? Hmm.
So, please guide me so I don't fsck this up. Options:
A) "It's just 1 sector. Do _____________________ and you should be fine (unless you start seeing more bad sectors)"
B) "You probably should replace the drive, but you're probably fine to use the NAS in the meantime."
C) "SHUT THAT BABY OFF ASAP UNTIL YOUR NEW DRIVE ARRIVES!!!"
Fear not, I have tried to RTFA and I have this link on speeddial for when the time comes:

(this is not mission-critical, so that's why no cold spare)
Code:
CRITICAL: Nov. 28, 2018, 4:02 p.m. - Device: /dev/ada2, 1 Currently unreadable (pending) sectors
