Just for kicks, I decided to connect this old USB2 Seagate FreeAgent G 
portable HDD to my Debian/Linux box to run gsmartctl, but it couldn't 
read SMART data with gsmartctl. I tried my very old, updated Windows XP 
Pro SP3 machine and it had no problems with gsmartctl.

I ran its short tests and no problems. I ran its 2.22... hours long 
tests, but it (fail/abort)ed within a few minutes. Maybe I shouldn't be 
multitasking? Can someone please kindly review what the logs say?
