Synology America Corp. - NEW NAS Experience -

S.M.A.R.T., or Self-Monitoring Analysis and Reporting Technology, is a monitoring system for computer hard drives to examine and report on various attributes to alert the user of possible disk failures. Users will be able to inspect the disk information, disk S.M.A.R.T. information, and perform S.M.A.R.T. tests on the disks installed from within the DSM 2.3 Management interface.

S.M.A.R.T. is for experienced computer technicians who are familiar with reading and comprehending technical data from the various HDD manufactures. HDD manufactures do not adhere to one specific standard as each manufacturer has a different standard for referring to S.M.A.R.T. data. However, it is recommended to change your disk if errors are detected.
