I have this internal WD (green) 2 TB EZRX working flawlessly for almost 2.5 yrs.Never had a problem.
Yesterday while checking "speedfan",I found the HDD having "current pending sector count" of 1.
Raw values of "reallocated sector count" & "reallocated event count" are 0.
Crystal disc info,Hard disk sentinel also showed same values.
But,WD Data lifeguard diagnostics didn't find any problem in "quick test".
I ran "chkdsk /f" from cmd then.First windows found some problem on C drive & fixed it during boot.
Further "chkdsk /f" showed no problems in any disk whatsoever.
Today I ran a thorough surface scan of the drive with minitool partition wizard.It didn't find any problem/bad sector. But other softwares still showing the pending sector count as 1.
I am attaching the screenshots of various tests here:

I already did a backup of my necessary data to an external WD HDD today.
Please someone explain what is happening to my drive as different test results seem contradictory to me.How much time it has got before it fails completely?
N.B. - There is still no performance hit in the hard drive.It's working without any problems/crash.
Thanks in advance
