The "raw" values are "vendor defined".
Often the 6 bytes of raw data are split up into 1 or 2 byte wide fields.

Any volunteers to submit a patch to smartmontools to dump
"raw values" as hexidecimal by default?

(8589934592000 == 0x7D000000000)

441778176 == 0x1a550000

Need to see if the vendor will provide documentation to decode these values.

AFAICT, it's not safe to directly compare raw values between vendors since
the raw values don't mean exactly the same thing (e.g. more aggressive retries
might result in few reallocations.)
