View S.M.A.R.T. Disk Information

S.M.A.R.T. (Self-Monitoring, Analysis, and Reporting Technology) monitors drive 
performance and calibration characteristics, and predicts imminent drive failure. Drive 
attributes and their associated values are listed in the 

SMART Disk Information

 screen.

Note: 

S.M.A.R.T. disk information is available only when the S.M.A.R.T. feature is 

supported and accessible by DLGDIAG. Under the 

SMART Status

 column, a question mark 

icon displays if the S.M.A.R.T. feature is not available. A red X icon displays for a specific 
attribute if and only if it's value falls below the threshold value and the warranty value is 1. 
Some IDE and SATA controllers do not allow S.M.A.R.T. information to be read from the 
hard drive. For more information, please contact the manufacturer of the controller to 
determine if the controller supports S.M.A.R.T. attribute reading.

1. Highlight the drive and click the S.M.A.R.T. disk info icon on the top row to view 

S.M.A.R.T. disk information.

2. The S.M.A.R.T. disk information for the selected drive displays.
