Hi all,
Does anyone know what the codes in HDD Tune Health report mean?

I'm particulary worried about the one that failed ...

I am guessing that this is from an HP computer?

B8 is a special HP firmware revision change for seagate drives.


It monitors the data from the point it is loaded into the HDD cache and travels to the Host controller.

If the checksum does not match then an error will occur which is recorded in this attribute.


Basically, this failing can mean a few things.


The cache on you hdd's PCB is failing (i doubt this)

there is an instability in your motherboards storage controller (this is more likely, are you overclocking, etc? try updating you drivers also)


 
Thanks for the feedback.
I added the hard drive yesterday; running along 2x250GB Barracuda's.
I am currently overclocking... I will play with some settings and look for latest drivers, can't remember the last time I updated the MB drivers.

System specs:
Asus P5K Deluxe (P35 Chipset)
4GB DDR2 800
Core2 E6750@3.2ghz
2x250GB Barracuda's
Radeon HD4870@stock
Seagat MI12 500PSU
 
Interesting ... didn't realise PCE-E could impact the SATA controller.
Will check it later today.

In the mean time I've completed a complete run on SeaTools from Seagate and there were no problems detected...
