I got a WD Caviar Black 1TB (WD1001FALS) and according to SMART, I got:

one "Reallocated Sector"
one "Reallocated Event"
26 UDMA CRC Errors

in my drive but it's a "Pass" for the "SMART overall-health self assessment test". I think it's because of these, I'm having problems with Grub, and thus can't boot into any OS at all. Are these problems serious?

According to "Warranty Services", my drive is still "In Limited Warranty". Would I be eligible for a replacement?

FYI: I'm running Ubuntu 11.10.

Any help will be appreciated.

Thanks
