SMART-ER Overview
Click on the SMART-ER icon in the system tray, and the program
displays its main window. This is the SMART-ER Properties Directory.
You can access all areas of SMART-ER through its Directory.
Drives Property Page
This property page is used to view the system S.M.A.R.T. status, drive
S.M.A.R.T. status and IDE/ATA parameters. You can run a S.M.A.R.T.
off-line test on the drive selected.
If you have more than one internal hard drive on your system, you
can select it from the Select Drive drop-down box. Every time you pick
a new drive the IDE/ATA parameters will change to match that hard
drive selected.
Click on the check boxes to enable or disable the option for the
selected drive. SMART-ER is not functioning until the enable check box
is checked. Furthermore, if you have more than one hard drive on your
system, you would need to select each hard drive and enable SMART-
ER by checking the box ‘Enable SMART Status Monitoring.’ Click OK
to save all changes made on any of the property page. Click cancel to
discard any changes made.
