Hmm pretty strange output if you ask me.
So it's a pretty new disk then ? (or it's a very infrequently used machine) The power on hours counter seems a little low (unless it has gone round the clock which some drives do) It just seems odd that you have managed 54 power cycles in 71 hours.
Temperature must have the wrong multiplier or something, either that or the machine lives in a fridge.
What confuses me is that if you had a Offline Uncorrectable or Current Pending Sector Offline event then it should still be there (or it should have been eventually read and become a Reallocated Event). But all these counters are at Zero.
It's be nice to compare the spinup time to another drive of the same model/capacity,
Funny you should say that! Oops!
There are two identical drives, same make, model and capacity, in the machine and I did the test on the wrong one. The normal working drive is hda and hdb is mirroring hda as a backup. I did the first test on hdb which is quite new and is normally powered down except for once a night when the mirroring is done.
The temperature was probably so low because the drive had only just spun up for the test.
it looks high compared to my drives but it may be expressed in different units (or being misreported) however in theory at least if it went too far out of spec then it would have caused an alert status on the drive.
Also keep an eye on that Hardware ECC recovered, I am sure it shouldn't be that high (if the drive has indeed only done 17hours work) if it has rolled over then it is acceptable to have some of these over 100's or 1000's of operating hours (my drives don't even report it)
This is the report for hda:

Perhaps this might make more sense and at least you have something to compare it with. :-))
