It is a SATA disks :( So, when I run smartd, it says that currently it doesn't support SATA.
When you can bring the machine down, you might want to boot a recent kernel (>= 2.6.15) and test the disk with smartctl. (knoppix probably will not work, but a recent live-cd that has 2.6.15 and smartctl).
FC4 with the 2.6.15 kernel worked. You'll probably have to wait until EL5 for smartctl libata support in CentOS.
