When I boot up it says SMART fails on SATA prort 2. When I bypass this and boot off my SSD. I can still use it and it seams fine. I used defraggler to doubble check this. And it said it had bad sectors. After some Googleing it looks like Hitachi  store it their data differently so I down loaded theif software and did a short test and a long test and it said it was fine. What should I do. I don't think it really going bad. But I dont want to have to deal with it every time I boot.

 

TL:DR how to stop smart test on hard drive during boot. 

 

Forgot to attach my pic                                        "Real Value"   "Current"        "Worst"       "Threshold"

EDIT: the red says "Readlocated Sectors Count     1,109               1                     1                   5"

Download Seatools for windows.

 

Run a short DST, if it fails that... start backing up/ order a new drive

S.M.A.R.T Is a build in system that warns you before your drive is going to fail , Back the drive-up ASAP and get a replacement before it's too late and it dies and you'll lose all data on it!

Pretty sure that S.M.A.R.T. is a standard and no one "stores it differently"

 

I would stay away from Hitachi drives in the future though WD and Seagate are much better options.

Considering they had 3 year warranties I'm still good.
