hard drive - New HDD showing CAUTION status











enter image description here
This drive of mine is less than 2 weeks old. And why am I seeing this CAUTION status? Help please. This is very stressing...


Answer



Purely technical answer:




You are likely seeing the CAUTION state because it found a value at the highlighted part (C5) which was outside its threshold.



Now if you means what does this mean: First read those values mean. Start with this page on wikipedia.



Then relax. The raw values column is a mere one.
