Here's something that I never noticed before, hopefully it'll be useful for others too. The new SpeedFan (don't know exactly when it was added), has a nice feature to get a complete report about the SMART status of your hard disks. If you select the SMART tab in
SpeedFan, you get a listing of the SMART parameters for the disk in the drop-down box. If you click on the "
Perform an in-depth online analysis of this hard disk" button, you'll see a very nice report of the disk's overall health. the second graphic is a typical example, you'll have to click on it to get a clear copy.
