Hard drive failure imminent?

Last response: in Storage

Hi. I've been experiencing some weird behavior from my secondary 1TB drive. Some programs throw me some IO device errors. So I decided to run Seatools. The drive pass the SMART Test but then fail the Short/Long Diagnostic Self Test. The thing is it's not always the case. This morning it passed the Short test but then failed the long...

How long do I have to buy a new drive to replace the failing one? (I can RMA it but I'll do it after I've copied the data on another 1Tb drive (If I can))
