SMART

The SMART IDE and SCSI hard drives for HP workstations have built-in drive failure prediction that warns the user
or the network administrator of an impending failure or crash of the hard drive. SMART drives track fault prediction
and failure indication parameters, such as re-allocated sector count, spin retry count, and calibration retry count. If
the drive determines that a failure is imminent, it generates a fault alert.
