Volitans Software Announces SMART Utility 3.1 - Published on 08/03/12

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Volitans software has announced SMART Utility 3.1, a significant update to the hard drive diagnostic application. SMART Utility is an application to scan the internal hardware diagnostics system of hard drives SMART is a system built into hard drives by their manufacturers to report on various measurements of a hard drive's operation. The new features include email notifications, better drive support, and 10.8 support.

Lancaster, Pennsylvania - Volitans software has announced the release of SMART Utility 3.1, a significant update to the hard drive diagnostic application. The new features include email notifications, better drive support, and 10.8 support..

SMART Utility is an application to scan the internal hardware diagnostics system of hard drives SMART (Self-Monitoring, Analysis, and Reporting Technology) is a system built into hard drives by their manufacturers to report on various measurements (called attributes) of a hard drive's operation. The attributes can be used to detect when a hard drive is having mechanical or electrical problems, and can indicate when the hard drive is failing. SMART Utility can read and display these attributes. This allows time to hopefully backup, and then replace the drive.

SMART Utility is different from other drive utilities, such as Disk Utility, which only read the overall SMART Status. SMART Utility not only displays the individual attributes to see their status and information, but it also uses an internal algorithm based on those attributes to detect drives failing before SMART indicates it has failed. This pre-fail detection can save precious data before SMART has determined that the drive has failed. And, while the raw information can be viewed on the command line with smartmontools (which is what SMART Utility is based on), SMART Utility presents it in an easy to read format, as well as running its internal pre-fail algorithm.

Full release notes for Version 3.1:
* Added email notifications for app and extra
* Added SMART Utiilty.log file to crash reports to provide more information
* Added Developer ID signing for Gatekeeper on 10.8
* Fixed a bug preventing the overall status from displaying properly on 10.8
* Fixed some other minor bugs
* Reorganized preferences window
* Reorganized Growl notifications (removed scan and update complete, added drive name and partitions)
* Updated smartctl engine to 5.42, which supports many more drives
* Updated Growl framework to 1.2.3, which fixes some bugs
* Switched to using GCC 4.2
* Dropped support for 10.4

Features:
* Displays all supported drives and their partitions
* Displays easy to read overall SMART status with color coded text
* Displays important information in the main window, such as drive model, capacity, power on hours, temperature, bad sector counts, and error counts and types
* Displays more detailed information in separate windows, including capabilities, all available attributes, and the past five errors
* Sends email and Growl notifications
* Run scan every hour, day, or week
* Run built in drive self tests
* Customize failing triggers
* Print drive reports
* Save and open drive reports
* Supports scanning individual RAID drives in addition to non-RAIDed drives
* Supports logging all information to a log file for verifying SMART data
* Supports Mac OS X 10.5 to 10.8

Pricing and Availability:
SMART Utility is available in a variety of licenses including a personal license for $25 (USD) and a family license for $40 (USD). It can be purchased online or in an innovative way: within SMART Utility itself through its embedded web store.

Matthew is an Apple Certified Macintosh Technician, an Apple Certified Technical Coordinator, and an Apple Certified System Administrator.
