Crucial M500 reallocated sectors

Checked my M500 smart details to find several concerning metrics. Sent an email to Crucial already but do you folks think it should be replaced? I know there was nothing alarming in there back in May of 2014.

Could be an unsigned short/int overflow or a data type mismatch. Keep checking the value and see if it goes up.

You may wish to back it up.

How about check it out with Crucial's SSD Toolkit: Crucial® Storage Executive
Could also check it with SSD Life.

This may be a false alarm but may not be. 65536 reallocated sectors sounds like a software issue with DiskCheckup. +1 to Snowkinght26

SMART Data is very drive specific so other users of that drive would have the best data.

Storage Executive says it's healthy and Crucial says not to worry about it. Guess I'll leave it in place for now and keep an eye on it. Thanks for the feedback.
