Need experienced people: HD tune drive health report

[BTRY B 529th FA BN]

My backup drive is going bad according to my bios and HD tune. I have it mirrored to another same drive (ST3500630NS Seagate) In all, I have 3 of the same drive. The last of the three has a different firmware revision (upcoming intentions were to RAID 0 the two same firmware drives for an AVCHD machine but now, the two with the same firmware have been broken up by one of the drives failing)

Before I go any futher, I have made some screenies of the health reports of the remaining two ST3500630NS drives and would like to know now if they are a gamble or if I should just scratch these drives and buy two new ones.

Here are the reports:
reference this as 'G' according to t's firmware


reference this as 'K' according to it's firmware

They look fine to me.

Seagates always seem to have really funny numbers in SMART.
Programs like CrystalDiskInfo even reports "Caution" on perfectly good Seagates i've noticed...

If you are in doubt, just run Seatools to be sure.

Specifically, Seagate says to ignore the "Spin Retry" numbers in SMART reports. Both disks have zero reallocated sectors, which is a good sign.

The drive that went bad was the one that had 2660 re-allocated sectors.

@ N7 - Thanks, I'll try that.

What about:

Raw Read Error Rate
Seek Error Rate
Hardware ECC Recovered
on both drives?

Did a little more researching and came across this page! Very informative.
