Using WMIC to check for predicted disk failure (S.M.A.R.T. analysis)

  • Artikkeli

I was looking at the Windows Vista Reliability and Performance Monitor and noticed that the data collector sets for System Diagnostics included a SMART disk check.  I've been waiting for Windows to make better use of SMART and hadn't noticed that there was a WMI entry for it.  I took a look at it in WMIC to see what data was there.  You can also view the data and thresholds used to predict failure, etc.
