TOSHIBA PC Health Monitor
The TOSHIBA PC Health Monitor software program monitors computer
system functions such as power consumption, the cooling system and
HDD/SSD status. It alerts users of specific system conditions via pop-up
messages. It also tracks the usage of the computer and related devices,
logging the service relevant information on the computer's hard disk drive.
The collected information includes device operation time and number of
actuations or status changes (i.e.: number of power button and FN key
combination uses, AC adapter, battery, LCD, fan, HDD, sound volume,
wireless communication switch, TOSHIBA Express Port Replicator and
USB information), date of initial system use, computer and device usage
(i.e.: power settings, battery temperature and recharging, CPU, memory,
backlight illumination time, and temperatures for various devices), property
(i.e.: product name, model number, part number, serial number, BIOS
version, FW version) of the system and components (i.e.: Video device,
Sound device, Network device, Hard Disk drive, Solid State drive, Optical
Disc drive), and also operating system and software information (i.e.: OS
version, OS install date, Direct X version, Internet Explorer version,
installed update program and driver lists). The stored data uses a very
small portion of the total hard disk capacity, approximately 10 MB or less
per year.
This information is used to identify and provide a notification of system
conditions which may effect the performance of your Tcomputer. It may also
be used to help diagnose problems should the computer require service by
TOSHIBA or TOSHIBA's authorized service providers. Additionally,
TOSHIBA may also use this information for quality assurance analysis.
Subject to the use restrictions above, the HDD data logged may be
transferred to entities located outside of your country or region of residence
(i.e.: European Union). Those countries may or may not have the same
data protection laws or data protection levels as required by your home
country or region.
