3.7.3 Hard drive S.M.A.R.T. support
S.M.A.R.T.
(

echnology) is a
diagnostic tool for hard drives to deliver warning of drive failures in advance.
S.M.A.R.T. provides users chances to take actions before possible drive
failure.
S.M.A.R.T. measures many attributes of the hard drive all the time and
inspects the properties of hard drives which are close to be intolerable. The
advanced notice of possible hard drive failure can allow users to back up hard
drive or replace the hard drive. This is much better than hard drive crash when
it is writing data or rebuilding a failed hard drive.
“S.M.A.R.T.”
allows users display S.M.A.R.T. information of hard drives. The
number is the current value; the number in parenthesis is the threshold value.
The threshold values of hard drive vendors are different; please refer to
vendors’ specification for details.
S.M.A.R.T. only supports SATA drive. SAS drive does not have. It will show
N/A in this web page.
