Question regarding HDD wear?

Good afternoon. I want to buy a "new" hdd, since the prices are now far from adequate, the choice fell on a used one. Proposed to my and your attention screw Western Digital Blue 1TB WD10EZEX. The question is - can you tell, based on the results of tests of Victoria and Smart, how much the disk is worn out, and is it worth buying one?
The "orange" sectors are very alarming to me.
Z.Y. I would like to take something closer to the new, so that the service life is not limited to one or two years.
Z.Y.S. Issue price: New costs - 1746 (socket.ua). Used 1000. b30c16f147444cc2aebfd38b4c0b772d.jpg0f01182db66c4ac2b17b3354b4309075.jpg51d7153d23c14ed38ac52822061372f5.jpg

Overall the disc is in good condition. Wear is small. SMART is normal.

Previously, I remember, SMART could be stupidly turned off ...

Repeat the test with Victoria from DOS. Most likely, everything will be OK.
Under Windows, the orange sectors mean nothing. Windows could be busy with something, so the delay arose.

I think there are relatively few hours of operation, but there are already orange sectors, maybe this is the beginning of the end?) Or if I operate it carefully (cooling, respite for the night), will the decomposition process stop?)

Didn't find what you were looking for?
