I get a message that SMART status BAD, backup and replace drive on boot. This is on my Asus P5W Dh motherboard, I press F1 to resume and alls well. I ran the maxtor power max diagnosis util and it says the drives fine? what should I do? I replaced the sata cable and get the same message on boot.
Asus P5W DH says HD dying, but not util.

Ran speedfan and it says...
Error: Reallocated Sector Count has reached its threshold. Current value is 59 and threshold is 63.
According to S.M.A.R.T. specifications, your hard disk is failing and needs to be immediately replaced. Backup your data as soon as possible.
Warning: Reallocated Sector Count reached, in the past, its threshold. Worst value is 59 and threshold is 63.
NOTE : your hard disk has 1965 reallocated sectors (this value is very large and your hard disk should be replaced). Hard disks do have spare sectors (usually from 256 up to 1024) used to replace bad ones. This remapping operation is transparent to the end user. Anyway, this can lead to degradated performances (because remapped sectors are in different places of the disk than the original ones and the head needs additional moving). If reallocated sectors grow over time, you might encounter some serious troubles. A backup of the most important data is suggested anyway.
The overall fitness for this drive is 0%.
The overall performance for this drive is 91%.
Damn, looks like its backup time.
