S.M.A.R.T. Technology
S.M.A.R.T. is an acronym for Self-Monitoring, Analysis and Reporting Technology, an open standard allowing
disk drives to automatically monitor their own health and report potential problems. It protects the user from
unscheduled downtime by monitoring and storing critical drive performance and calibration parameters. Ideally,
this should allow taking proactive actions to prevent impending drive failure.
Apacer SMART feature follows the SATA Rev. 2.5, ATA/ATAPI-7 specifications, using the standard SMART
command B0h to read data from the drive. And based on the SFF-8035i Rev. 2.0 specifications, Apacer
SMART defines 3 vendor-specified SMART Attribute IDs (E5h, E8h-EFh, and F3h) in the SAFD 254. They
represent Flash ID, good block count, free-list block count, maximum erase count, average erase count, and
firmware version information. When the Apacer SMART Utility running on the host, it analyzes and reports the
disk status to the host before the SAFD 254 is in critical condition.
