When an error is detected, the data on the hard disk can be backed up and the drive replaced. SMART Reaction To help back up important data, IBM provides SMART Reaction software on computers with preinstalled software and also on the IBM Software Selections CD. SMART Reaction is a client/server software application that helps users and administrators respond effectively to a warning issued by the SMART hard disk drive. Virus protection Your computer has built-in virus protection that can be enabled through the Configuration/Setup Utility program.
