No reboot in between... Note the SNs are identical. That's impossible.
The drive models are probably truly the same, but the SNs certainly are
not. I think I found a bug in smart, unless someone can think of a
reason why I'd be seeing this.
The problem is, I just relied on a smart email like this to decide
which drive to pull and replace. Now I'm not so sure the smart
reporting is telling me anything correct.
This is on a fairly new Fedora and smartmontools-7.2-11
>From today forward I would recommend double-checking smart reports
before acting on them. (smartctl -a, hdparm -i, etc)
