smartd warning

[Youri Andropov]

Hi there,

I'm having some worrying messages in /var/log/messages:

Code:

Apr  9 22:13:09 freenas smartd[2540]: Device: /dev/ada2, 8 Currently unreadable (pending) sectors
Apr  9 22:13:09 freenas smartd[2540]: Device: /dev/ada2, 8 Offline uncorrectable sectors
Apr  9 22:43:08 freenas smartd[2540]: Device: /dev/ada2, 8 Currently unreadable (pending) sectors
Apr  9 22:43:08 freenas smartd[2540]: Device: /dev/ada2, 8 Offline uncorrectable sectors

This message pops every half an hour.
Should I replace the drive, or do something ?

Did you even try to search the forums for the answer.. we get this question every week, so the answer is already readily available with a little bit of work.

Ok, sorry. So I have :
