amount of control desired:

DISABLED - the network administrator does not want to
be made aware of the computer hood removal

NOTIFY USER - notifies network administrator that the
hood has been removed, but no administrator action
required before re-booting the computer

Drive Protection System

A diagnostic hard drive self test. It scans critical physical
components and every sector of the hard drive for physical
faults and then reports any faults to the user.

Running independently of the operating system, it can be
accessed through a Windows-based diagnostics utility or
through the computer's setup procedure. It produces an
evaluation on whether the hard disk drive is the source of the
problem and needs to be replaced.

The system expands on the Self-Monitoring, Analysis, and
Reporting Technology (SMART), a continuously running
systems diagnostic that alerts the user to certain types of
failures

SMART I - Drive Failure Prediction

Yes

SMART II - Off-Line Data Collection

Yes

Yes

SMART III - Off-Line Read Scanning
with Defect Reallocation

Allows hard drives to monitor their own health and to raise
flags if imminent failures were predicted

Predicts failures before they occur. Tracks fault prediction
and failure indication parameters such as re-allocated sector
count, spin retry count, calibration retry count

By helping users avoid actual hard drive failures, SMART
hard drives act as “insurance” against unplanned user
downtime and potential data loss from hard drive failure
