Why WD HDD has different set of values when comparing to other WD HDDs?

I have a newly brought laptop hard disk WD blue 5400 RPM HDD. And today when I replaced this new HDD with a laptop I checked HDD details from CystalDiskInfo and I saw there are differences between values when comparing to my other WD HDDs CrystalDikInfo details. I just need to know why are these Current, Worst and Threshold and other values are different and also if this disk has any issues with the values. And also if this disk is good or not. Anybody can help me? Thanks in advance.

Solution 1:

The disk seems fine. It has fewer events than your other disk.

The value of 100 means no events, so nothing much to remark about the disk, except the "G-Sense Error Rate" which is 85.

G-Sense Error Rate is defined as:

G-sense error rate S.M.A.R.T. parameter indicates the number of errors caused by externally-induced shock or vibration.

Recommendations

This parameter is considered informational by the most hardware vendors. Although degradation of this parameter can be an indicator of drive aging and/or potential electromechanical problems, it does not directly indicate imminent drive failure. Regular backup is recommended. Pay closer attention to other parameters and overall drive health.

If you often transport this laptop, it's recommended that you turn it off for the duration, so the shocks should not affect its functioning. Usually an SSD is better than an HDD for a laptop, because it has no moving parts.

In general, the disk is fine, just should be handled with more loving care ;)
