Hard Disk Sentinel Pro Overview

Hard Disk Sentinel is a multi-OS hard disk drive monitoring application. Its goal is to find, test, diagnose and repair hard disk drive problems, display hard disk health, performance degradations and failures. Hard Disk Sentinel gives a complete textual description, tips and displays/reports the most comprehensive information about the HDD inside the computer or in an external enclosure (USB / e-SATA). Many different alerts and report options are available to ensure the maximum safety of your valuable data.

Hard Disk Sentinel monitors hard disk status, including health, temperature and all S.M.A.R.T. (Self-Monitoring, Analysis and Reporting Technology, built in most hard disks today) values for each hard disk. 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 effectively used to prevent severe damage or data loss because it has the most sensitive Hard Disk Sentinel Pro Overview.

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 effectively used to prevent severe damage or data loss because it has the most sensitive hard disk health rating system, which is extremely sensitive to disk problems. This way, even a slight problem can’t be missed, and a failure or data loss can be predicted. This allows backing up important and valuable data. The Professional version has scheduled, and automatic (on-problem) backup options to prevent data loss caused not only by failure but also by malware or accidental delete also.

Key Features of Hard Disk Sentinel Pro

• All information is 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 colours to indicate the level of the problem. Detailed text description and context-sensitive help guide the user through the features and options.
• 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 in the tray and displays the current status. The data is protected even in 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
• Instant S.M.A.R.T. analysis – Hard Disk Sentinel can communicate with IDE, Serial ATA and SCSI hard disks to detect their status and temperature. Disk status is displayed immediately as you launch the application; there is no need to analyze disks for an extended 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 is also displayed, including power-on hours or the number of read/write errors. Hard Disk Sentinel interprets the performance and fitness-related S.M.A.R.T. 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 partition 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 this information is 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 kinds of alerts for different problems. It can execute various tasks (even external applications) in case of a problem. There is an option to send daily emails about the current status.
• Intricate 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 was 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 disk and type and usage information about them, so you cannot run out of space. Hard Disk Sentinel sends this information automatically in alert/status messages.
• Shutdown – It offers the 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 an 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 the 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 helpful, just let us know.
