Drive Protection System

•

A diagnostic hard drive self test. It scans critical physical
components and every sector of the hard drive for physical
faults and then reports any faults to the user.

•

Running independently of the operating system, it can be
accessed through a Windows-based diagnostics utility or
through the computer's setup procedure. It produces an
evaluation on whether the hard disk drive is the source of the
problem and needs to be replaced.

•

The system expands on the Self-Monitoring, Analysis, and
Reporting Technology (SMART), a continuously running
systems diagnostic that alerts the user to certain types of
failures

SMART III - Off-Line Read Scanning
with Defect Reallocation

•

Allows hard drives to monitor their own health and to raise
flags if imminent failures were predicted

•

Predicts failures before they occur. Tracks fault prediction
and failure indication parameters such as re-allocated sector
count, spin retry count, calibration retry count

•

By helping users avoid actual hard drive failures, SMART
hard drives act as “insurance” against unplanned user
downtime and potential data loss from hard drive failure
