How to protect disk data?
Self-Monitoring, Analysis and Reporting Technology, S.M.A.R.T for short, is formally established in ATA-3 standard. S.M.A.R.T monitors magnetic head, disk, motor and electric circuit, comparing and analyzing operating conditions with history records and default safety value by hard disk monitoring circuit and monitor software on host. It will automatically warn user when safety value is beyond normal state or it will lower the hard disk operating speed and transfer important data to other safe sectors if technology is advanced enough.
DFT, Drive Fitness Test is data protection technology developed by IBM for other PC hardware by using DFT program to visit DFT code of IBM hard disk to detect hard disk. Moreover, DFT is an independent program doesn't depending on operating system to function properly under any circumstance.
