This is especially could be important in case if the drive has some undocumented proprietary (vendor-specific) health indicators (S.M.A.R.T. The more measurement data (history) DriveDx has, the more accurate the results. The last one (measurements history) also could be a cause of different results on multiple computers for the same drive.

health indicators (SMART attributes) proximity to threshold.

SMART attributes statistically closely related to HDD or SSD failures.

For example, some Intel SSDs could report some strange results when its firmware performs garbage collection routines.ġ) Some subset of HDD / SSD health indicators is related not only with HDD / SSD itself but also with hardware environment (computer, ports, cables, power supply, drive and ambient temperature and (sometimes even) electrical noise).Ģ) DriveDx evaluates drive health status based on the next criteria: SSD results could be affected by internal firmware activities related to garbage collection and self-recovery routines. High temperatures could trigger thermal throttling and affect the performance of SSDs.

some other vendor-specific health indicators.

Temperature, vibration level or electrical noise conditions could affect the following health indicators (SMART attributes): Quality of data cables affects health indicator #199 “(UDMA) CRC Error Count”. Fluctuation of “Spin-Up Time” indicator usually means that drive have not enough power supply or has not optimal temperature conditions or both. However, most modern computers have the ability to stop a drive while the machine is already running as a means of energy conservation or noise reduction.

Spin-up generally occurs at the very beginning of the computer boot process. Health indicator “Spin-Up Time” reports average time (in milliseconds or seconds) of spindle spin-up (from 0 rpm to fully operational). In the case of HDDs: #3 “Spin-Up Time” is mostly affected by power supply health indicator. SSDs and especially HDDs could be sensitive to power supply level, and high performance 7200+ RPM HDDs could be very sensitive to power supply level. pre-failure state early detection - DriveDx supports 3 drive health statuses: Ok, Failing (pre-failure) and Failed.Some subset of HDD / SSD health indicators is related not only with HDD / SSD itself but also with hardware environment (computer, ports, cables, power supply, drive and ambient temperature and (sometimes even) electrical noise).

real-time SSD/HDD health status monitoring.

DriveDx is the first utility of its kind to have a real user-friendly Mac-style interface. Key features: The application provides access to all sufficient drive diagnostic data to satisfy any system administrator. Our drive health diagnostics algorithms are based on the recent researches in this field.

status, but also analyzes the changes of all drive health indicators that are closely related to SSD or HDD failures (like SSD wear out / endurance, reallocated bad sectors, offline bad sectors, pending sectors, I/O errors and more) and alerts the user immediately if anything goes wrong. Unlike most drive utilities, DriveDx does not only monitor the drive’s built-in S.M.A.R.T. DriveDx is advanced drive health diagnostic and monitoring utility.
