You may have certain drives for which you want to set unique
properties. For example, you may want to alert different managers
when drives in different areas of your company exceed threshold
settings.
On the Drive properties window you can specify the types of
notification you want to enable for selected drive in
Active SMART . These settings specify who is notified
and how in the event the selected drive exceeds its warning
threshold settings, or fails completely. This is unique settings
for this drive only, so you can set unique
notification settings for different drives on your
PC.
First, select checkbox to Use
custom notification settings for this drive. This way
you tell Active SMART to use settings that are specific for
this drive only, and NOT to use global settings for this drive (you
can change global settings on Preferences tab). After this you can
enable or disable following settings this drive:
-
Enable warning threshold and disk
failure notification Enable/disable notification
about S.M.A.R.T. events and errors.
-
Enable drive temperature
warning Enable/disable notification about drive
temperature changes and critical drive temperature warning. Below
this option you can set disk critical temperature. Active SMART
will notify you if the drive temperature exceed this critical
value.
Next you can select different types of notification you want to
enable for critical notification and for notifications about
S.M.A.R.T. attribute changes. There are pop up message, email
message and network message. Every message contains alert
description and computer name, where the alert has been sent
from.
