Δεν ανοίγω νέο θέμα, μιας και το "πρόβλημα" ταιριάζει: σήμερα πήρα κι εγώ αυτό το warning κατά την εκκίνηση του υπολογιστή μου, συνοδευόμενο κι από ένα δεύτερο:
έγραψε:IDE Channel 1 no 80 conductor cable installed.
IDE Channel 1 Slave Hard Disk SMART Status Bad.
WARNING: Immediate back up your data and replace your hard disk drive. A failure may be imminent.
Ο συγκεκριμένος σκληρός είναι ένας IDE 80άρης που περιέχει.... το σύστημά μου!

Άρα το back up από μόνο του δε λέει τίποτα, μιας και αν γίνει στραβή θα πρέπει να το ξαναστήσω!
Ωστόσο, με το smartctl δεν βλέπω να έχει καταγραφεί κάποιο συγκεκριμένο error, ούτε κάποια τρελή τιμή σε κάποια παράμετρο:

Λέτε να τα έχει παίξει όντως?
