Run this beta, enter the S.M.A.R.T. tab, make sure you are connected to the internet, select one EIDE or SATA hard disk, then press the "PERFORM IN-DEPTH ANALYSIS..." and you will be presented an advanced check of your hard disk, including warning, errors and tips. This is a technology preview that uses a database containing statistical data for a lot of hard disk models. Send me emails with your comments, suggestions and (hopefully few) bug reports. This feature simply needs to be able to send an HTTP request. HTTP PROXY settings have been centralized in CONFIGURE dialog.

In order to run this beta, simply install SpeedFan 4.27, then replace the EXE from version 4.27 and then run SpeedFan as usual. Please, use the SEND REPORT facility on the INFO tab adding your notes.

Because of the nature of this beta, please, do not mirror (it would be a copyright violation) this file.

Beta 6 makes proxy settings properly editable in config and adds support for nForce410. Beta 11 is one step away from the final release. The overall SMART indicators (fitness and performance) now use a different algo. I would like to know if people think that reported values are meaningful. I would like to get reports from owners of SEAGATE drives. The online in-depth hard disk analysis tool has a brand new database with about 300 hard disks.
