Personal SmartCheck

October 17, 2008
Personal SmartCheck 4.0 employs S.M.A.R.T. technology to track a hard drive's S.M.A.R.T. attributes and predict impending drive failure to avoid data loss. The software notifies users of potential disk health issues before data loss becomes an issue.

I recently tried out Personal SmartCheck 4.0 and was impressed with its use of S.M.A.R.T. technology to monitor the internal attributes of hard drives. This software allows users to predict and prevent possible drive failure, ultimately saving valuable data.

One of the most useful features is the ability to set prediction settings, which informs the user about potential disk health issues before data is lost. Personal SmartCheck also provides up-to-date information about the health of all hard drives on the computer. This is incredibly useful, as it allows users to take action before it is too late.

The prediction of the nearest T.E.C. for any hard drive is essential, as it can prevent valuable data loss by replacing dangerous drives and backing up all data. For example, motor and/or bearing failure can be predicted by an increase in the drive spin-up time and the number of retries it takes to succeed in spinning up the drive. Personal SmartCheck also alerts users when error correction is being used excessively, which can indicate a broken head or contamination.

One of the best outcomes of using Personal SmartCheck is preventing downtime. With a failure prediction, users or system managers can easily backup important data, replace a suspect device prior to data loss, or avoid undesired downtime.

S.M.A.R.T. technology monitors over 30 attributes, including performance, bad sectors, calibration, CRC errors, disk spin-up time, distance between the head and disk, and temperature. Currently, the SMART system can detect around 70% of all hard drive errors.

Personal SmartCheck also provides an icon in the system tray that displays the temperature value of the hottest hard drive. When a user points the mouse at the icon, the software will show a hint with the temperatures of all hard drives. Additionally, Personal SmartCheck provides notification when the temperature of the hard drive exceeds the threshold by a balloon hint or WinPopup.

In summary, I highly recommend Personal SmartCheck 4.0 for anyone looking to monitor their hard drives and prevent data loss. The use of S.M.A.R.T. technology allows for accurate predictions and the prevention of failures that could result in data loss or downtime. The monitoring of over 30 attributes also provides a comprehensive overview of the health of all hard drives on the computer.
