![]() This way even a small HDD problem can't be missed. HDSentinel is the perfect data protection solution: it can be effectively used to prevent HDD failure and SSD / HDD data loss because it has the most sensitive disk health rating system which is extremely sensitive to disk problems. Also it measures the disk transfer speed in real time which can be used as a benchmark or to detect possible hard disk failures, performance degradations. (Self-Monitoring, Analysis and Reporting Technology) values for all hard disks. Hard Disk Sentinel monitors hard disk drive / HDD status including health, temperature and all S.M.A.R.T. information about LTO tape drives and appropriate industrial (micro) SD cards too. In addition Hard Disk Sentinel Pro detects and displays status and S.M.A.R.T. No need to use separate tools to verify internal hard disks, external hard disks, SSDs, hybrid disk drives (SSHD), disks in RAID arrays and Network Attached Storage (NAS) drives as these are all included in a single software. Many different alerts and report options are available to ensure maximum safety of your valuable data. Hard Disk Sentinel gives complete textual description, tips and displays/reports the most comprehensive information about the hard disks and solid state disks inside the computer and in external enclosures (USB hard disks / e-SATA hard disks). Its goal is to find, test, diagnose and repair hard disk drive problems, report and display SSD and HDD health, performance degradations and failures. The program measures operation time.Hard Disk Sentinel (HDSentinel) is a multi-OS SSD and HDD monitoring and analysis software. Test ends in the middle of the testing area. The first block in the first pair will be Block 0, the second block in the first pair will be Block N (where N is number of last block for testing). Butterfly Read mode is similar to Read mode difference only in blocks' order.The program tests blocks one by one from minimum to maximum. The program sends the block of data to the drive and the drive writes the block (All previous data in the block on the drive will be overwritten with the pattern and cannot be recovered after that!) The program measures operation time for each block. In Erase mode the program prepares block of data field with special pattern and an LBA number. ![]() The program reads block of data into a temporary buffer and measures time of operation for each block. In Read mode device reads block of data and transfers it thorough interface to the host controller.The program measures operation time for each block. In Verify mode device reads block of data into drive's internal buffer only and checks for consistency, there is no data transfer through an interface connector/cable.Verify test may work in unreliable way on USB/Flash devices.Verify test may have restrictions on Block Size with 256, 16384 or 65536 sectors because of Windows limitations.Author wasn't able to get stable test results with two or more simultaneous tests. The program should not be run from a read-only device/media.Windows XP SP3, Windows Server 2003 (with restrictions), Windows Vista, Windows 7, Windows 8, Windows 10.Spindle start/stop function on ATA/SATA/USB/FireWire/SCSI HDD.Reporting defect information on SCSI HDD.Changing AAM, APM, PM parameters on ATA/SATA/USB/FireWire HDD.Reading and analyzing identity information from ATA/SATA/USB/FireWire/SCSI HDD.Temperature monitor for ATA/SATA/USB/FireWire/SCSI HDD.SMART tests running on ATA/SATA/USB/FireWire HDD.Reading and analyzing Log Pages from SCSI HDD.Reading and analyzing SMART parameters from ATA/SATA/USB/FireWire HDD.Reading in Butterfly mode (synthetic random read).Reading in linear mode – same as verification but also transfers data to the host.Verification in linear mode – fastest way to determine if your drive needs data rescue, has recoverable errors or in its perfect shape.USB Flash (pen drives) – surface tests only. ![]()
