From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Does your drive do any weird bit packing in its smart data? Some of mine used to do weird shit like store read errors plus total sectors read packed in one field which constantly threw errors until I added the proper data format in a config file. Without specifying a data format smartmon just assumed the drive was throwing absolutely huge numbers of errors and threw warnings every run.
Try googling the specific error message, or your drive model plus the error and see if anything pops up.
