I just noticed in HD tune pro today that my Samsung 840 EVO has an error which HD tune pro says is a failure(used reserve block count). However Samsung Magician and Crystal disk info say other wise. I did read something similar to this on here a while ago but not much was said about it. has anyone else had this happen? Do i need to be concerned?

HD Tune sets it's own criteria and thresholds as to what it regards as a "failure".

If both Samsung Magician and Crystal Disk do not report a problem, believe what they tell you and ignore HD Tune. In fact, I would get rid of HD Tune altogether. Too many diagnostic softwares just cause doubt and confusion.
