Hard Disk is one of the main component of your computer without Hard Disk the computer is nothing.Everything is stored on Hard Disk.Have you ever thought about monitoring the performance of your hard disk.e.g. Temperature of Hard Disk,Read Write Rate and so on.

The system is based on the Self-Monitoring Analysis and Reporting Technology (S.M.A.R.T.). This software monitors hard disk parameters such as Temperature, Head Flying Height and Spin-Up Time and notifies a user when a critical condition occurs.
