You've got a Current Pending Sector count of 100, which means a bunch of unreadable sectors. I guess it's possible that the dips in the graph could be related to that.

If that number is stable you may be OK, but if it increases over time then it means your drive is continuing to degrade and you'd better back up all your data and move it to a new drive.
