Is it actually a Seagate or WD harddrive? I've tried to run those diagnostics on a samsung/hitachi drive before, and all they can do is do the basic diagnostics - such as check for bad sectors.... it wouldn't be able to tell you that the hd is failing soon.

But I would definitely back up soon as well. Shitty deal now that HD prices are so expensive.
