<p>The raw S.M.A.R.T. attributes (temperature, power-on lifetime, and so

<li><b>My Maxtor/Hitachi disk is only a few days old, yet smartctl reports its age (Attribute 9) as thousands of hours!</b>
<p>On some recent disks, Maxtor has started to use Attribute 9 to
store the lifetime in minutes rather than hours. In this case, use
the -m option (smartctl versions 5.0.X) or the
--vendorattribute=009,minutes (smartctl 5.1.X) option to correctly
display hours and minutes.
