Why You Need Advanced SmartCheck For Your Hard Drives

The hard disk holds all the information of a computer system and any tool that can provide comprehensive information about the hard drive is invaluable.

Advanced SmartCheck was developed to give detailed information about your hard drive.

Advanced SmartCheck provides S.M.A.R.T (Self-Monitoring, Analysis and Reporting Technology) attributes of your hard drive in a simple interface and clean layout which makes it easy for first-time users to easily get used to the program. It has a wide application in network computers and has the capacity to predict the lifespan of a hard drive.

SmartHddS.M.A.R.T technology was a collective effort of major Hard Drive Manufacturers in an effort to increase the reliability of their hard drives. This technology enables the PC to predict possible disk drive failure in the future. Its popularity has grown to become a standard in the hard drive manufacturing industry.
S.M.A.R.T system plays major roles in the computer system including monitoring of the disk performance, calibration, bad sectors, disk spin up time, CRC errors, temperatures, the gap existing between the disk and head, features of medium, sero-mechanism or motor, and heads. Currently, S.M.A.R.T system has the capability of detecting up to 70 percent hard drive errors.

Hard drive failure can lead to wanton loss of valuable data and often the lead source of frustration among computer users. Advanced SmartCheck can actually prevent hard drive failures and loss of valuable data by monitoring the health of the hard drive and displaying the statistics as well as highlighting dangerous changes that can harm the hard drives. The statistics are also sent to the Network Administrator through email.

Advantages Of Advanced SmartCheck

  • The use of Advanced SmartCheck in network computers has several advantages. The most prominent of them all is that all the information about the hard drive is collected in one place so that it is easily accessed by the Network Administrator.  This helps the person in charge of the hard drives to see their health status and take critical decisions (like replacing them) before their total failure to prevent data loss.
  • Overheating is another major commonly encountered problem which hard drives which is also detrimental to their health. It has been shown that 10 degrees rise in the temperature of the hard disk from the normal room temperature of 25 degrees Centigrade can cut down their lifespan by half. Advanced SmartCheck shows the Administrator the overheated hard drives so that they take critical decisions like purchasing and installing more cooling systems for the affected hard drives.
  • Advanced SmartCheck’s use is not limited to a personal computer. It can be used to monitor the hard drives of the entire networked computer system because of the S.M.A.R.T technology. This software has prediction settings which help you detect potential disk health problems before they cause any major harm to your stored data.

The Parts Of Advanced Smartcheck

Advanced SmartCheck is made up of two parts; the Administrator’s Component and the Client’s Component.The Advanced SmartCheck’s Client Component can be launched at all network computers using the same script as the user’s login. Once this is done, it collects the needed information including the S.M.A.R.T attributes of the computer. Other information that it collects include:

  • The vendor of the drive
  • The size of the hard disk (in Gigabytes and Megabytes)
  • The model of the hard disk
  • The firmware version of the hard disk
  • The day the S.M.A.R.T monitoring of Advanced SmartCheck was initiated
  • The last check date of the drive by Advanced SmartCheck
  • The date for the next T.E.C (Threshold Exceed Condition) for the drive

Advanced SmartCheck’s Administrator Component compiles all the S.M.A.R.T attributes into a built-in database and works out the T.E.C dates (if one or a few of the S.M.A.R.T attributes of the drives has dangerous ruin) for each of the S.M.A.R.T attributes of the individual drives.The drives with awfully critical attributes would be sent to the Administrator through emails at specified day’s intervals. The Administrator has the power to control the generated reports by tweaking the settings of various parameters through the “Option” window.The displayed reports by Advanced SmartCheck can be a little tricky for first-time users to handle but because of the friendly interface, you should find your way around pretty soon.
