DiskCheckup by PassMark® Software - Overview |

PassMark DiskCheckup is an easy-to-use Windows application that allows users to view a hard disk's device information, including its SMART (Self Monitoring Analysis and Reporting Technology) attributes. It uses the PassMark SysInfo DLL to gather the SMART attributes of a hard disk connected via a variety of interfaces (ATA, USB, Firewire). The SMART attributes provide a snapshot of the long term health of a disk drive and can be used to predict possible drive failure. All devices that support retrieval of SMART attributes are displayed under the "SMART-enabled Devices" group. Non-SMART devices (eg. Memory card readers, virtual disks) are displayed under the "Other Devices" group. If you believe your device has been miscategorized, please run DiskCheckup in debug mode and send the log file to help@passmark.com.
