Enabling and Disabling SMART Changes

You can enable or disable the ability to change the Self-Monitoring, Analysis and
Reporting Technology (SMART) settings for all drives connected to the controller.
This can be set to ENABLE, DISABLE, or DON’T MODIFY (which means the
controller should not change any drive’s SMART settings). The default setting is
DON’T MODIFY.

On most drives, SMART is disabled by default by the manufacturer. You may want to
enable it if you want disk drives to be able to recover from errors on their own.

To enable or disable SMART changes:

1

From the System Menu, select Configuration Menu and press Enter.

The Configuration Menu screen displays.

2

Select Disk Configuration and press Enter.

The Disk Configuration screen displays.
