Hard Disk Sentinel - A utility for monitoring and control of hard disk drives. Identifies potential problems, reduced performance and possible failures. Can warn the user if it detects problems or excess temperature. Its potential is clearly not seem superfluous, especially in the case of special values ??of data stored during the growth of volume of storage. The program monitors the status of hard drives, including indicators of temperature and parameters of SMART (Self-Monitoring, Analysis and Reporting Technology, a technology built into most modern drives) for each hard drive.
The program monitors the status of hard drives, including indicators of temperature and parameters of SMART (Self-Monitoring, Analysis and Reporting Technology, a technology built into most modern drives) for each hard drive. Also measures the speed of data transmission in real mode (the indicator can be used for testing or determining the occurrence of low productivity in certain situations). Works in background and continuously analyzes the situation. In case of error or threshold is exceeded certain parameters specified by the user, a warning. In most cases, the aid comes just technology SMART, since it is one of the fastest and easiest ways to track the change in critical or critical parameters of the drives.

Hard Disk Sentinel can be used to prevent serious damage or loss of data. The program warns the user if there was a problem before it happens and will provide an opportunity to backup important and valuable data. Hard Disk Sentinel runs in the background and continuously analyzes the state of the hard disk. If there is an error or unexpectedly observed behavior, the program warns the user about the current state. Usually, the hard disk may slowly deteriorate from day to day. SMART-technology helps to predict a possible failure by monitoring the critical values ??of drive. The program also displays the current temperature of the hard drive and remembers the previous temperature, which can be used to check the maximum temperature at high load the hard drive.

Features:
- Works with drives through the interfaces IDE, Serial ATA and SCSI, determines the status and temperature in real mode, readings are displayed instantly, no need for a long diagnostic; shows the current and the minimum temperature of storage, the specific attributes depending on the manufacturer, will be useful to advanced users the hour operating time and number of errors read / write performance and interprets the value of the state of SMART in percentage for easier understanding;
- With the help of special icons for disks in the system displays the basic values ??of the state and used space, thus simplifies control;
- With the help of special icons for disks in the system displays the basic values ??of the state and used space, thus simplifies control;
- Possible withdrawal of the current values ??of the temperature in the system tray and follow-up warning when exceeding the threshold, if desired, you can view detailed status information of all hard drives in a window or a small window and a full schedule of temperature change since the start of the program;
- Hard Disk Sentinel defines a model of storage devices and displays detailed information about each of them, ranging from the revision number / size of the buffer and ending with all other of its properties; displays the current and the maximum possible data transfer mode;
- Program keeps track of the total amount of data that have been copied or written to disk, display the current read / write speed and CPU;
- Displays information on all aspects of the system, regardless of the number of drives and in the future, these data are used for automatic warning and status display.

Hard Disk Sentinel is a hdd monitoring tool that will help you find possible hard disk problems, performance degradations and failures. It can alert if a problem detected or if temperature is too high and it has other reporting options. As hard disk sizes are constantly increasing, data stored on them are more and more valuable for the user of the computer (and this is especially true for a company or office). Serious problems can occur upon a hard disk failure.

Hard Disk Sentinel can monitor hard disk status, including temperature and SMART (Self-Monitoring, Analysis and Reporting Technology, built in most hard disks today) values ??for each hard disks. Also it measures the hard disk transfer speed in real time which can be used as a benchmark or to detect possible hard disk failures, performance degradations. Hard Disk Sentinel can be used to prevent serious damage or data loss. It warns the user before a problem may occur and this gives opportunity to backup important and valuable data

Here are some key features of "Hard Disk Sentinel Professional":
· Easy to use interface
· All information are displayed in the main window of the application. Quick controls allow easy navigation to access all hard disks, partitions and different information. Intuitive user interface elements display information by using green / yellow / red color to indicate the level of problem. Detailed text description and context sensitive help guides the user thru the features and options.
• 1. Install> 2. Configure> 3. Stay protected
· Just install, configure alerts and backup options and your system is now safe. You'll be notified about the problems - but if everything is correct, Hard Disk Sentinel just sits on tray and displays current status. The data is protected even in 24 hours daily, 7 days a week.
· Instant S.M.A.R.T. analysing - Hard Disk Sentinel can communicate with IDE, Serial ATA and SCSI hard disks to detect their status and temperature. Disk status are displayed immediately as you launch the application, there is no need to analyse disks for a long period. It displays the current and maximum temperature for the hard disk.
· It can read all general and vendor-specific attributes and monitor their values. For advanced users, all raw data are displayed also including power-on hours or number of read / write errors. Hard Disk Sentinel interprets the performance and fitness related SMART values ??and displays the calculated Performance and Health percentage, total power on time and estimated lifetime remaining.
· Disk status in Windows Explorer - View the current health status and used space in Windows Explorer or in any other application, so you'll always know the amount of used space for each partitions and the disk condition.
· Information on demand - It can display current hard disk temperatures and health on the system tray, in a small status window and on the desktop itself. Average and maximum temperatures are logged for all hard disks and these informations are displayed in graphs for statistical purposes.
· Logging - Hard Disk Sentinel logs all degradations in all SMART parameters. For example, if a new uncorrectable sector is found on your hard disk, you will be notified.
· Alerts - Hard Disk Sentinel can make different kind of alerts upon different problems. It can execute various tasks (even external applications) in case of a problem. There is an option to send daily emails about current status.
· Hard Disk Details - Detects and displays every information about the hard disk, from the revision number and buffer size to all features it has. The maximum available and current transfer modes are also displayed.
· Hard Disk Performance - Logs how much data were read from or written to the hard disk. Displays current transfer rates for both reading and writing and estimates the maximum available (theoretical) transfer rate for a particular hard disk.
· Hard Disk Partitions - Displays partitions for each physical hard disks and type and usage informations about them so you cannot run out of space. Hard Disk Sentinel sends this information automatically in alert / status messages.
· Shutdown - It offers option to shut down the computer on failure, overheat or parameter degradation. This option can be used to prevent further data loss.
· Acoustic Management - It offers option to control the acoustic level of IDE / S-ATA hard disk. It is possible to increase performance or make the disks more silent.
· Clock Synchronization - It offers option to synchronize the PC clock with an atomic clock via NTP (Network Time Protocol).
· Improvements - Hard Disk Sentinel is constantly improving. More features will be available soon. If you have any idea which can be useful, just let us know.
