Hard Disk Sentinel
- Hard Disk Sentinel overview. Hard Disk Sentinel (HDSentinel) is a hard disk monitoring software with highest possible support of HDD/SSD/SSHD (hybrid) drives. Its goal is to find, test, diagnose and repair hard disk drive problems, report and display SSD and HDD health, performance degradations and failures.
- I originally installed it to monitor the temperature of my hard drives which was a concern of mine after I had a hard drive fail due to excessive heat. One day Hard Disk Sentinel started reporting that my main hard drive was experiencing health issues. Now I'm very glad I had HD Sentinel installed! I will tell everyone to use this product.

Программа Hard Disk Sentinel отслеживает статус жестких дисков, включая показатели температур и параметры S.M.A.R.T. (Self-Monitoring, Analysis and Reporting Technology, технология, встроенная в большинство современных накопителей) для каждого жесткого диска. Также измеряет скорость передачи данных в реальном режиме (данный показатель может быть использован для тестирования или определения случаев заниженной производительности в тех или иных ситуациях).
Работает Hard Disk Sentinel в фоне и постоянно проводит анализ ситуации. В случае выявления ошибки или превышения порога определенных параметров, указанных пользователем, выведет предупреждение. В большинстве случаев на помощь приходит именно технология S.M.A.R.T., так как это один из наиболее быстрых и простых способов отследить изменение особо важных или критических параметров накопителей.
