smartctl question

Thank you for reading this.
I've installed Xubuntu, version 22.10, on a Lenevo X131e which often
suffers from a frozen desktop. The mouse pointer can be moved but the
user cannot interact with the mouse. The system can sometimes be
restarted by pressing ctl alt f1 followed by ctl alt f7. An Internet
search shows that these symptoms are fairly common with XFCE installations.
I thought that the HDD might be the culprit so I tried:
sudo smartctl -a /dev/sda
The result looks OK except for:
187 Reported_Uncorrect 0x0032 100 100 000 Old_age
Always - 38654771200
Does this indicate a faulty HDD?
