Home Server SMART

Specifically designed for home and small business servers, Home Server SMART can monitor attached hard disks in real time, retrieving their S.M.A.R.T. parameters, notifying you about health issues that might occur, and offering repairing suggestions.

Home Server SMART is very similar to WindowSMART, but it can only be deployed on Windows Server as an add-in, not a standalone app, and accessed via the Windows Home Server Console. Its purpose is to permanently monitor connected hard disks to detect problems in due time and prevent unexpected hardware failures that often lead to massive data loss.

By keeping you aware of all the hard disk health issues, not only that Home Server SMART offers you a time window to backup your data, but it can also provide recommendations to keep the equipment in top shape or replace troublesome disks. Moreover, it can automatically perform an emergency backup without user intervention in case of an inevitable hard disk failure.

Home Server SMART is capable of automatically shutting down the server in case the hard disks' temperature remains at high levels for a longer period, thus prolonging their lifetime. Should a serious problem occur, Home Server SMART can be configured to send you notifications via email or an SMS message directly on your mobile phone. You get a daily summary of the monitoring session.

Home Server SMART can query all the hard disks that are connected to your home or office server, keeping a close eye on their health status. It displays the S.M.A.R.T. parameters for all, compares them to the optimal values and provides you with notifications about issues that require your attention.

It is a must-have tool for anyone who owns a small server, providing real-time monitoring capabilities to find bad sectors or temperature-related problems that might result in a hardware failure.
