I just noticed that smart tests have not been done in years, I'm assuming an upgrade killed them. 0 to 173 hours to now manual one of 15000 odd hours so in trying to learn I entered this command found in Truenas Tutorial https://www.truenas.com/docs/core/coretutorials/tasks/runningsmarttests/ to see if there any schedules not listed in the GUI:
To verify the schedule is saved, you can open the shell and enter smartd -q showtests.
But instead of verifying any schedules I assume it created some and what is more strange to me is the 90 type S tests for ada0 below, it seems to be picking on ada0 though it's fine:

Why were these tests created and why 90 tests just on one disk.
