Hello,

My new Harddrives arrived this week, and I tried to run Badblocks on them. But on one Harddrive I got errors after ~30h.

Code:
....
4644327
4644328
4644329
4644330
4644331
4644332
4644333
4644334
4644335
4644336
4644337
4644338
4644339
4644340
4644341
4644342
4644343
4644344
  7.15% done, 15:36:42 elapsed. (0/0/281 errors)


Is this something i should be concerned of? There are no SMART Errors on this Drives!

Agreed, if the drive is throwing errors, it is either bad or there is some connectivity problem.

The point of running bad blocks is to find the errrors early so you can replace the drive easily before finding the issue when the drive is in production.

It should be covered by warranty etc.
