Feature request: custom health thresholds on a per disk

Hi
I moved a hardrive from my NAS to my Windows machine that is not in a good health (30%).
Health has been holding at 30% for over 8 months.
This is fine, I know about this and accept that - I use the disk for temp files only.

The problem is that alarms go off every time I restart Windows - I have to disable sound or exit the application.
I request a feature to define a custom health thresholds on a per disk basis (much like a custom temperature can be setup per disk).
That way I could configure HDDS to alert only when things get worse.

Thanks for your message and the tip.

I can confirm that the custom health thresholds is available for many years: just select the disk drive and double click on the Health bar to configure custom Health thresholds: to open a window where you can configure a custom yellow / red (warning / alert) thresholds for the corresponding drive.

If you move the mouse over that Health bar, a quick hint should display this: "Double click to adjust custom health thresholds".
