Hard disk health and reliability analysis

Almost every EIDE or SATA hard disk includes S.M.A.R.T. data. That information is collected by the drive itself and contains data that the manufacturer considered relevant to check reliability. The data is made up of several attributes that have a current value, a worst one, a threshold, some raw data, and some flags. Basically, when any attribute's current value is below its threshold, the hard disk is considered unreliable and likely to fail. By using several techniques, this report tries to give a wider range of information, basing its analysis on advanced comparisons with normal values based on real hard disks and on expert-like checks. The final results are not to be taken as an absolute truth, but they are almost as good as a professional expert advice about your hard disk status.

Your hard disk is a Maxtor 4D080H4 with firmware DAK019K0.
NOTE: a S.M.A.R.T. model for this hard disk is not available (yet). Attribute comparison has been made against standard values. New models are computed often and in the future this hard disk should take advantage of the additional crowd knowledge.

Your hard disk temperature is 0°C.
