Dear All, We are proposing our customers to use 'smartmontools' to regularly monitor the disk health. But, they don't want to install new software, unless they know that their disks are indeed SMART capable. They are looking for a way to check if 'smartmontools' would really work on their disks, before they install it on their systems. Can you please let me know how I can check if a disk is SMART capable or not, without using 'smartctl'? This needs to be tested on Windows and Linux platforms. Thanks.
