Hi.

I have a ADATA HD710 PRO Hard Disk bought from Amazon
In Hard Disk Sentinel, this is the info displayed:

I would like to know if you can help me interpret the data if I should be worried about these subtle change sin the hard disk health.
I connect it via USB 3.0 using a USB 3.0 hub extender. Could that be an issue that may cause errors on the hard disk in the long term?

Or should I not be worried too much about this?

Thank you!

Sorry, but it seems the image is still not displayed.

Please note that for some new ADATA SSDs, you'd need to use the latest possible version 5.61.14:

as they provide status differently than expected, so they may appear differently in previous versions (including 5.61).

I suggest to use Report menu -> Send test report to developer option (from this 5.61.14 latest), as then it is possible to check the disk status and advise.
