Those failing sectors waiting for reallocation.
Failing of secors is usually regarded as the biggest indicator of failure in the next 1-2 months. Often once they start to pop up they pop up more and more.
According an analysis by google the failure rate has a peak shape, most drives after the first pending sector fail within the first 1-2 months - but if they DON'T statisticall the risk of failure afterwards lowers down again. A drive that survived the critical time period has a good chace of having a long life ahead after that.
Hence it tells you to be cautionous, not that it is faulty directly. It could just a single burst of sectors and that's it. It just tells you to be aware of the possibility of data loss. For less important data you can still use it.
