As above. Also, I see no self-tests logged?

I hadn't done any test manually but I had smartd running and
configured.

smartd won't run any tests unless you configure it to do so.

I completely forgot to check the surfaces when I bought the disks. I
did quite a few tests before I decided to use ext4 but did not check
their health.

I have two disks still missing 30% of the long test but the two other
ones stopped due to errors:

197 Current_Pending_Sector  0x0032   200   200   000    Old_age

197 Current_Pending_Sector  0x0032   200   200   000    Old_age
Always       -       1


I am gonna pass badblocks on them but this does not look good.

Could a faulty sata data cable cause those bad blocks? The disks are 8
months old so I hope I can get them replaced.

I see read failures on the SMART self tests, that warrants an RMA. So,
get that done. A faulty SATA cable would not do that, you'd rather see
CRC errors or other kernel log messages.
