| Nice! is this (or rather, the more polished version of it  ) going to become part of the OS, or is that impossible because of licensing issues? (ie parts of AmigaOS would have to become GPL'd) |

It would be better if the SMART stuff was added to MediaToolbox (but, yes, it would probably need to be reimplemented from scratch to get around the GPL)

| I was under the impression that SMART was something implemented at BIOS level only. I didn't know you could use it within the OS.

| SMART IOCTL already exist in Windows NT4.0 SP6a i.e. SP6a contains a fix for the buggy SMART IOCTL call.
For Windows 95 OSR2's SMART support refer to http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=265854 Last edited by Hammer on 02-Nov-2004 at 08:57 PM.

| smartmontools are very good, using the smartd here on sun servers - just for reporting bad hdds, BEFORE they really fail.
THO : yesterday i just compiled smartmontools on a sun ultra and started smartctl -a /dev/rdsk/c0t0d0s0 and ... the drive crashed :-/
hope the miggy version doesn´ t do such things
