Hard Drive Inspector is a powerful, effective and easy-to-use program that
monitors hard drive health. The value of information stored on an average
computer hard drive often exceeds the value of the computer itself. But a
hard drive is one of the most unreliable internal computer devices. When it
crashes (which happens quite frequently), the stored information will be lost
fully or partially. Subsequent information recovery is either not possible at
all, or constitutes a very sophisticated and expensive procedure that can
be performed only by specialists. Modern hard drives support S.M.A.R.T. (
Self-Monitoring, Analysis, and Reporting Technology) that was specially
developed to detect upcoming disk failures. Using this technology Hard
Drive Inspector can monitor the current state of various life-critical
parameters describing a disk's reliability and performance. Hard Drive
Inspector analyzes this data and warns the user if the parameters indicate
a critical reduction of disk reliability. Timely alerts make it possible to
copy the data and replace an unreliable disk, thus preventing information
loss.
