Hi, failing_now status usually means you have at most one more successful power on or a couple of hours of usability of your drive...and feel lucky if you can backup your data. In a real SMART error situation your drive is dying. But in your case, Having garbage at the end of lines, it seems to me that smartmontools misinterprets data structure. If you use IDE or SATA drives with recent kernel did you use "-d ata" flag? Try: smartctl -a -d ata /dev/sda Run offline tests: smartctl -t short (-d ata) /dev/sda or smartctl -t long (-d ata) /dev/sda After 1-3 minutes for short test you would see in smartctl -a status page something like this: SMART Self-test log structure revision number 1 Num Test_Description Status Remaining LifeTime(hours) LBA_of_first_error # 1 Short offline Completed without error 00% 13729 - If offline test reports sector error, there IS an unreadable part on your disk. Try to read scan whole disk by "dd if=/dev/sda of=/dev/null bs=512".
