HDD Crash

    I just downloaded it for the hell of it, and because one of my drives I've had since about 2001. It just says the prediction is 25% precise, however it just says N/A. Does this mean there is no known date for failure (and that the drive has no problems)?

    You have to run it for some time, it needs to archive changes of all these s.m.a.r.t. values and using these information, it can tell when one of the values will drop to 0 or other minimum (crash). If you run it for one hour and if it will record a value drop -1 after one minute it can think that each next minute it will drop another -1 and finally reach 0, so it's normal it says something might crash on June 14 if you use it for short period of time Try it for few days and then the prediction will be more accurate.
