SMART way to monitor your HD
PassMark DiskCheckup™ allows the user to monitor the SMART attributes
of a particular hard disk drive. SMART (Self-Monitoring Analysis and Reporting Technology)
is a feature on a computer's hard disk for providing various monitoring indicators of
disk reliability. If SMART is enabled on a hard disk, the system administrator
can receive analytical information from the hard drive to determine a possible
future failure of the hard drive.
SMART monitors elements of possible long term drive failure, such as 'Spin
Up Time', the number of start/stops, the number of hours powered on and
the hard disk temperature.
