So I got this MyPassport X 2TB from Target a week ago and I just opened it. I honestly dont NEED it...but w/e.

I opened the box today and ran a HDD Scan SMART test. These are the results, even after doing a format...they make me nervous with the error rates and such because the box was pretty beat up so it could have been tossed around or smashed at the bottom of a cart.

Any input? Should I be worried, or should I just return it (no exchange because they no longer carry it and it was on clearance $54)

Thanks.

Don't know if serious?

I have it on a flat non moving surface.

Emergency retract count is three. Three times the drive has experienced a shock while running that was severe enough that it could potentially damage the platters.

That can also be from disconnecting power suddenly, I think.

Well it was on top of my desktop while I had it running a few times...Ran the 5hr Extended test on it and it "PASS"ed

Might have also just unplugged it a couple of times from the Xbox One since you cant "safely eject usb port now"
