IIs something wrong with my HDD?

Hello, I'm new here :smileyhappy:
I have lately bought a used HD103SJ and here's the SMART of it http://i.imgur.com/of9Sc.png
I am wondering what's wrong with G-Sense Error Rate. When I received this drive the numer of this value was already at 20. Few days later it was 22, and now as you can see it's 24. Does this mean something is wrong with my disk? How high this value can go until reaches critical number?
I also own 500GB wersion of it (HD502HJ) bought over 2 years ago and it has G-Sense = 0.
Please tell me, should I worry about that or is everything ok? Maybe sensor is just too sensitive?

Re: IIs something wrong with my HDD?

I can't answer your question, but here are 3 photos which show 3 different shock sensor configurations:

The shock sensors are the rectangular, white, 2-terminal components, angled at 25 deg and 45 deg. One is located to the right of the SDRAM, while the other two are at the top, above the square motor controller IC (SH6125B).
