Smart Test - D-Link DNS-320L User Manual

Section 4 - Configuration
Self-Monitoring, Analysis, and Reporting Technology (SMART) is a system on a hard drive used to monitor and report on the
health of the drive. Under this tab, your hard drives will be listed, and can be selected to conduct a SMART test. If the hard drive
is grayed out, then it does not support SMART test functionality.
To run the SMART test, select the hard drive you wish to perform the SMART
test on. Select whether to run a Quick Test or Extended Test:
• The Quick Test usually takes less than 10 minutes to complete. This test will
check the electrical, mechanical, and read performance of the hard drive.
The results will be displayed as Passed/Failed on the web UI.
• The Extended Test is a much more thorough test and therefore requires a lot
more time to complete. The total time taken will depend on the specifications
of the hard drives being tested.
After selecting a test, click Start to run the test. When the test is complete, the
results will be displayed in the Result column.
You can also click the Create Schedule button to run the test at a pre-determined
time and date (refer to Creating a Schedule on page 82). You can also check the
Send Results by E-mail checkbox to send the test results to the e-mail account
specified in the E-mail Settings section of the configuration.
