30 Medalist 4342, 3232, 2122, 1722 and 1012 Product Manual 3.2.4 S.M.A.R.T. commands Self-Monitoring, Analysis and Reporting Technology (S.M.A.R.T.) provides near-term failure prediction for disc drives. When S.M.A.R.T. is enabled, the drive monitors predetermined drive attributes that are susceptible to degradation over time. If self-monitoring determines that a failure is likely, S.M.A.R.T. makes a status report available to the host. Not all failures are predictable. S.M.A.R.T. predictability is limited to only those attributes the drive can monitor. For more information on S.M.A.R.T. commands and implementation, see the Draft ATA-4 Standard. This drive is shipped with S.M.A.R.T. features disabled. You must have a recent BIOS or software package that supports S.M.A.R.T. to enable the feature. The table below shows the S.M.A.R.T. command codes that this drive uses. Code in Features Register S.M.A.R.T. Command Supported by Medalist 4342, 3232, 2122, 1722 and 1012 D0H S.M.A.R.T.
