I just got this drive, is this in danger or something? I'm not entirely sure how to decipher the info on this page but my other, much older drive doesn't have any highlights like this.

Well now I'm confused as I booted into Ubuntu and ran the disk utility on that, it says the status of everything is good. So why is HDtune highlighting them?

Okay after some Googling it seems every Seagate 1tb drive is getting the same results as me. Guess it's no big deal.

I read that HD tune isn't as accurate as some other progs.. The disk utility on ubuntu has reported failures accurately for me though. If you're in any doubt, try an extended SMART test on disk utility (unless you've already done that)
