About the SMART Disk agent
About the S.M.A.R.T. Disk agent

The S.M.A.R.T. Disk agent monitors hard drives that feature Self-Monitoring, Analysis and Reporting Technology (S.M.A.R.T.). S.M.A.R.T. monitors and reports drive degradation and failures making it possible for the S.M.A.R.T. Disk agent to warn you before an imminent hard drive failure. With this warning, you have enough time to back up your files before losing your valuable data.

S.M.A.R.T. monitors many aspects of your S.M.A.R.T. capable drives to assess its reliability and to predict impending drive failures. However, S.M.A.R.T. cannot detect all impending failures and as such we recommend that you backup your data regularly.
