The main drive in my desktop system is a Fujistu 36GB 150000RPM U320
drive, which I consider of top quality.

Write Errors Counter: 0
ECC On-The-Fly Hardware Corrections Counter: 811632
Total Posted Recoverable Read Errors Counter: 811632
Non-Medium Error Counter: 433

So, don't really know how to interept that.
