Self-Monitoring Analysis and Reporting
Technology (SMART)
Self-Monitoring Analysis and Reporting Technology (SMART) monitors the
internal performance of all physical disk components to detect faults indicating
the potential for physical disk failure. SMART uses this information to report
whether failure is imminent so that a physical disk can be replaced before failure
occurs. The RAID controller monitors all attached drives and notifies users when
a predicted failure is reported by a physical disk.
