Hard Drive Spin Up Time Failed?

[Expiliict]

Today I came home to Windows telling me my harddrive going to fail and asked me to backup.

I ran some diagnostic tools with the above conflicting results.

Anyone can shed some light on whether my drive really failing, or is it an error?

Also, I have another 2nd HDD running @ 48~52 degrees. It's placed right above first drive (which runs @ a cool 37 degrees). Any idea why?

Much Appreciated!

Harddisk should never fails to spin up. If it happens and it is not due to your power issue, then you ought to change it before it totally fails on you.

We all fall sick even when placed in good temperature tropical island in Singapore, why should a harddisk be any different ?

Your HDD is probably working fine, just that the S.M.A.R.T. field for that Spin Up Time is corrupted.

But if possible, do go RMA the drive as it's a valid reason to do it.
