Just checked I had a "CRITICAL: Device: /dev/ada3, Self-Test Log error count increased from 0 to 1" which I thought was pretty strange.
Nevertheless I did SSH and get the smartctl

Code:
[root@freenas] ~# smartctl -a /dev/ada3 | more

indicated that I have an issue. Is this the only parameter that shows the disk has a SMART error? Please help me decipher this report. Thank you. :)
I also see a parameter called remaining shown as 80% which was 00% previously. Could someone help me with that as well?

This is an early indication of a failing drive. You can re-run the SMART test by running smartctl -t long /dev/ada3 and see if you get the same.

I guess I read your mind. Thank you nevertheless.

=== START OF OFFLINE IMMEDIATE AND SELF-TEST SECTION ===
Sending command: "Execute SMART Extended self-test routine immediately in off-li  ne mode".
Drive command "Execute SMART Extended self-test routine immediately in off-line  mode" successful.
Testing has begun.
Please wait 526 minutes for test to complete.
Test will complete after Fri Feb 10 07:09:05 2017

Use smartctl -X to abort test.


I am guessing since the read error is from an extended offline test chances are that they are pretty accurate. I shall re run the smartctl in about 10 hours. :)

Thanks. Since you pointed it out that it failed with 80% remaining I guessed the test wouldn't last very long to pick another error if it was a 'correct' error.
took a fresh reading

From the result I guess it's pretty evident that there is an actual event of a Read error.
I do have a spare disk and no spare sata cable/port. Do I let the hard disk run till it has life or should I start resilvering ASAP?

Yup, defiantly time to replace that disk.

Also, just to note, your drive temp is at 39C. While drives will normally operate at this temperature, see if you can squeak out some more cooling and bring them to at least 35C.

Is your spare burned in? If not, I would start with that.

Once the spare is burned in, I'd replace the suspect drive. After resilvering is complete, you have a choice of immediate RMA, or further testing to see if the suspect drive might have correctable flaw. One way is to burn it in again, to see if any of the write passes will cause a sector reallocation. If not, you will see errors on each subsequent read pass, and should return it.
