These controllers use Self-Monitoring and Reporting Technology (S.M.A.R.T) to inform the host when a drive is experiencing abnormal
operation likely to lead to drive failure.
S.M.A.R.T. places the monitoring capabilities within the drive itself. These monitoring routines have direct access to internal
performance, calibration, and error measurements for a specific drive type.
