Smartmontools (S.M.A.R.T. Monitoring Tools) is a set of utility programs (smartctl and smartd) to control and monitor computer storage systems using the Self-Monitoring, Analysis and Reporting Technology (S.M.A.R.T.) system built into most modern (P)ATA, Serial ATA and SCSI hard drives.[1][2][3]
Smartmontools displays early warning signs of hard drive problems detected by S.M.A.R.T., often giving notice of impending failure while it is still possible to back data up.[4]
From late 2010 ATA Error Recovery Control configuration has been supported by Smartmontools, allowing it to configure many desktop-and laptop-class hard drives for use in a RAID array and vice versa.[5]
Most Linux distributions provide the smartmontools package.[6]
User interface
Native
smartctl and smartd have a command-line interface.
Third-party GUI
- GSmartControl is an opensource multi-platform graphical user interface (GUI) for smartctl developed by Alexander Shaduri.[7]
- SMART Utility is a program for Mac OS X with a GUI based on smartmontools.[8]
- HDD Guardian is an opensource Windows-only GUI for smartctl.[9]
