None of the your values are exceeding the threshold - it works =
backwards. If the value is LOWER than the threshold, you might be in =
trouble.
Also, judging by the raw read error rate, seek error rate and hardward =
ECC recovered, allow me to guess that this is a Seagate drive. :-)
(Seagate drives, perhaps among others, use these raw values way =
differently than others. My Hitachi 7K1000.B has 0 on those.)
