SMART Features
The SMART drive monitor features native support for hundreds of vendor-specific S.M.A.R.T. attributes across Samsung, Western Digital, Seagate, and more.
Advanced SMART drive monitor and data analyzer
Tap directly into your storage's built-in self-reporting tools with our SMART drive monitor to catch hardware faults before they manifest as data loss.
Professional SMART drive monitor with DriveWatch
Built for people who want premium PC monitoring software, clearer hardware analytics, and practical system diagnostics without a noisy workflow.
Sensor Monitoring
Continuous background monitoring polls SMART sensors safely without waking spun-down drives or interrupting workloads.
Attribute Diagnostics
Detailed diagnostics explain exactly what each SMART attribute means, from reallocated sector counts to power-on hours.
Temperature Tracking
SMART temperature tracking pulls data directly from the thermal sensors embedded on the drive's PCB and flash controller.
SMART Analysis
Our proprietary SMART analysis engine looks at attribute degradation over time rather than just static thresholds.
Failure Detection
By analyzing SMART history, our failure detection system can accurately predict when a drive will reach the end of its usable life.
Why it helps
DriveWatch keeps the important signals close together so SSD health, fan RPM monitoring, CPU monitoring, GPU monitoring, and disk health analytics support the same diagnostic picture.
