SMART Utility

SMART Utility Publisher's Description:
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 dying. This allows time to hopefully backup, and then replace the drive. Run this utility once a week or more to ensure your HD, and your data, are okay!

What's new in this version:

* Fixed bug where even if "verypermissive" setting worked, it would not be recognized as working; this allows support of some if not all SeriTek adapters
* Fixed bug that would cause the interface to fail to update if drive model, serial number, or capacity could not be read from the drive
* Fixed bug where debug log did not have a return between model family and drive model
* Fixed more memory leaks (found using Clang Checker / Static Analysis)
* Fixed a few minor code issues (found using Clang Checker / Static Analysis)
* Moved raw smartctl output prior to any error detecting to allow for easer debugging
* Now application and helper tools are code signed
