What do you want to do exactly? Windows will log and give a pop-up if a disk SMART status indicates it's failing.

  Google did some tests/research/study a few years back and they noticed that hard drives fail around 40% of the time without showing any signs with SMART attributes. EDIT: Ok, few years = 10. http://storagemojo.com/2007/02/19/googles-disk-failure-experience/ http://storagemojo.com/2007/02/19/googles-disk-failure-exper...

    Fair- matches my experiences (seems to me it only flags a drive at the point where it's physically clicking or otherwise very dead) but they specifically asked for a SMART monitoring tool.

    That would save about 60% of the settlement costs.
