Starkadius 219 Posted October 26, 2013 Share Posted October 26, 2013 For a while now I have been using Acronis Drive Monitor and so far it has performed well especially for being free. It lets me know when one of my drives has reached a certain temperature threshold or some other critical event has occured. I have been looking around for alternatives just to see if there is anything more reliable/better out there because with drives holding all my media I would rather take all the extra precautions possible and prefer the best as I am sure most of you will agree. These are what I found so far. What disk monitor software do you guys use if any?

Erik 120 Posted October 27, 2013 Share Posted October 27, 2013 I've been using WindowsSMART for some time. Very happy with it, and I believe it's free for home server / essentials versions of windows. http://m.dojonorthsoftware.net/Default.aspx 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
