For more information, please read how S.M.A.R.T. This is a more sophisticated way to predict failures than the “traditional” method: checking S.M.A.R.T. It is much more sensitive to disk failures and can display better and more detailed information about hard disk expected life and the problems found (if any). Compared to other software, Hard Disk Sentinel detects and reports every disk problem. The SMART monitoring technology can predict HDD failure by examining the critical values of the disk drive. Usually, hard disk health status may slowly decline, from day to day. If an error is found or unexpected behaviour is detected, it warns the user about the current situation and also can perform appropriate actions (for example, start an automatic backup). HDD Sentinel runs in the background and verifies SSD / HDD health status by inspecting the SMART status of the disk(s).

The Professional version has scheduled and automatic (on-problem) disk backup options to prevent data loss caused by not only failure but by malware or accidental delete also. This way even a small HDD problem can’t be missed. HDSentinel Professional is the perfect data protection solution: it can be effectively used to prevent HDD failure and SSD / HDD data loss because it has the most sensitive disk health rating system which is extremely sensitive to disk problems. Also it measures the disk transfer speed in real time which can be used as a benchmark or to detect possible hard disk failures, performance degradations. (Self-Monitoring, Analysis and Reporting Technology, built in most hard disks and solid state disks today) values for each disks. The software monitors hard disk drive / HDD status, including health, temperature and all S.M.A.R.T. Many different alerts and report options are available to ensure maximum safety of your valuable data. “Hard Disk Sentinel” gives complete textual description, tips and displays/reports the most comprehensive information about the hard disks and solid state disks inside the computer or in external enclosures (USB / e-SATA).

Its goal is to find, test, diagnose and repair disk drive problems, report and display SSD and HDD health, performance degradations and failures. This is a multi-OS HDD/SSD monitoring and analysis application. Hard Disk Sentinel PRO is available as a free download from our software library.
