HDD Temperature

HDD Temperature is a software created to monitor and prevent hard-drive damage, a common issue caused by overheating. A hard-drive heats up when it is spinning at a high rate, and fans and coolers are necessary to prevent this from happening. Nevertheless, these gadgets can fail or become plugged, causing the risk of damage and potentially losing important data.


This software from PalickSoft can help prevent overheating concerns. HDD Temperature has two versions available: regular, for home users with only one hard-drive, and pro, for small and large companies requiring multiple hard-drives monitoring. The regular version is free and utilizes S.M.A.R.T. technology found in modern HDDs to monitor temperature and set maximum values. By doing so, a warning is triggered when temperatures exceed set values.


S.M.A.R.T. technology stands for "Self-Monitoring, Analysis and Reporting Technology" and it is currently the most advanced technology in this field, having been developed by manufacturers such as IBM, Maxtor, Seagate, Hitachi, and many others. In contrast, HDD Temperature Pro offers features such as simultaneous monitoring of multiple HDDs and sending warning messages to specified emails or computers in the network. When an overheated system is detected, HDD Temperature Pro can automatically force the system to hibernate, protecting unsaved data and the HDD. It can even run as a network service, making it ideal for corporate networks.


Overall, HDD Temperature is a great tool for monitoring and preventing hard-drive damage, and with the convenience of S.M.A.R.T. technology, it is accessible to both home users and corporations. Get your copy now and stop stressing over hard-drive temperatures.
