Self-Monitoring Analysis and Reporting Technology (SMART) Self-Monitoring Analysis and Reporting Technology (SMART) monitors the internal performance of all physical disk components to detect faults indicating the potential for physical disk failure. SMART uses this information to report whether failure is imminent so that a physical disk can be replaced before failure occurs. The RAID controller monitors all attached drives and notifies users when a predicted failure is reported by a physical disk. 186 Management: Firmware Downloads
