Hard Disk Monitoring

Report sent this morning - which "text description" do you mean? Both Overview and SMART tab show correct values.

Hi, right now I'm running a damaged HDD to the ground to get it RMA'd without questions - I noticed the log tab does use 16 bit numbers for reported values. After 65184 reallocated sectors it went down to just 40, while the raw value now reads 0x10028 and the data tab correctly uses a larger number ...

Hi, quick question as I found no notes in the help or FAQ: In the disk repair logging tab, there's a summary line to each questionable sector, e.g. 01.04.2022 00:02:41 Repair successful Sector: 180230624, Block: 922 [0 (1) 0 (1) 0 (1) 0 (1) 0 (1) ] What's the 0 (1) stuff that is appended here? There...

Write and subsequent read cycle, same drive.

I was about to open a thread about this as well, so let's chime in here... While it is generally true that spinning hard disks slow down on read and write speeds from the outer rings to the inner ones for pure geometric reasons, I have observed generally slow writes in the last couple of weeks as we...

Hi, some minor bug: Those SAS disks present spaces/tabs at the end of their serial number, which are preserved when copying the s/n field from the SMART data. They are also present in this surface test dialogue which causes some ugly line breaks or spaces before the closing bracket. Suggestion: Trim...

I have to say this looks quite odd... vertex.png vertex2.png SSD still accepts chunks of data at a few MB/s avg until it completely disappears from the system; SMART error log is corrupted, self test gets stuck at 10%. Basically dead. Note that the SMART numbers also do not add up - even just 3889 (...

Hi,

setting up alerts via mail results in the following message: "Syntax error in parameters or arguments"
I've checked with another adress from the very same provider, works as it should.
So what's special about the first one I tried? It starts with a dot. Yes, that is possible

Hi, atm I'm dealing with two hard drives that contain bad sectors. I'm running the surface test and every now and then a new error appears in the 196/197 SMART attributes during the auto-check every five minutes. However, these are only displayed on the "Overview" tab and the "SMART&q...

The "error" msg from the SMART tests is also too long to fit: It only displays "Test fehlgeschlagen und Bedienungsschader"

Oh, and some of the serials of your WD20EARS-00MVWB0 WMAZA1686361 are quite blurred :mrgreen: Btw, this drive has warranty until 11/27/2012, but only if it still resides in the WD Elements Desktop New (WDBAAU0020HBK) it came in. As this is an external USB2.0 enclosure, it is highly unlikely to reach...

-> S-ATA Compliance=S-ATA-fähig Wrote "S-ATA-Erfüllung" Compliance ist eigentlich weniger die Fähigkeit sondern die Einhaltung/Erfüllung der Vorgaben eines Standards. Vielleicht fällt dir ja noch etwas anderes dazu ein. Ich weiß, aber Erfüllung klingt auch recht deppert. Wenn ich nur was ...

Some more ideas :mrgreen: Line 44: "Aktuelle Lesezugriffrate" -> Aktuelle Leserate Line 45: "Aktuelle Schreibzugriffrate" -> Aktuelle Schreibrate Line 153: "Akustikmanagement Konfiguration" -> Akustikmanagement-Konfiguration Line 175: "Kritischer Wert Absetzung&quo...

Hi again :mrgreen: I just noticed that when having 50 entries in your log, there are two glitches: * If another warning is added, the oldest one is not displayed anymore (list is limited to 50 entries) * Any _new_ warning will not be visible in the log until HD Sentinel is sent to tray and restored ...

Hi :D -> left one: no description on y-axis, right one: huh, it's there! :) I can't really feel it is a problem. There are points with their values displayed on the graph. As you noticed, the Y-axis displays descriptions for some points (eg. 100, 80, 60, 40, 20, 0) if applicable. If the graph shows ...

As you may see, the software everywhere uses binary values (2^n). KB/MB/GB/TB is the standard unit for this (despite Wikipedia). If you want to verify, you can see the same values in lots of other software (or just check Windows disk management itself) and there is no "MiB" displayed but ...

Thanks for the bug reports and your thoughts, of course no problem for using a single post ! 1) If possible, can you please - use Report menu Send test report to developer option Done ;) 2) I'm not sure if I understand correcty. If the fields has no (or no negative) change, than it means that the a...

Hi, first of all, I hope it's okay to put several bug reports in just one posting. If not please notify me for next time :mrgreen: 1) http://www.abload.de/img/hdsentinel11ryq.png HD Sentinel uses the current value for any field (not only power on hours count) for many data points from the past. Bug ...

Hi, some other fixes: (original line from de.lg / fixed one) Line 52:Firmware Revision -> "Firmware-Revision" OR just "Firmware" Line 53: Festplatte Seriennummer -> Seriennummer (same with 56, 57, 58: just delete the prefixed "Festplatte" Line 55: ATA Informationen -> A...

Hi everyone :D The german health status of my oldest drive has some strange meaning, and by comparing it to the english text I finally found out what was meant in here...please fix it in your next version! An diesem Punkt ist kein Garantieersatz mehr möglich, nur falls der Zustand früher schlechter ...
