Description

Computrace

Computrace agent included; separate software and subscription required

DT or MT Orientation

Drive Lock

Implementation of the industry standard ATA Security feature set. When enabled, it

 

prevents software access to user data on the drive until one or two user-defined

 

passwords are provided.

Drive Protection System

DPS Access through F10 Setup during Boot

 

A diagnostic hard drive self test. It scans critical physical components and every

 

sector of the hard drive for physical faults and then reports any faults to the user.

 

Running independently of the operating system, it can be accessed through a

 

Windows-based diagnostics utility or through the computer's setup procedure. It

 

produces an evaluation on whether the hard drive is the source of the problem

 

and needs to be replaced.

 

The system expands on the Self-Monitoring, Analysis, and Reporting Technology

 

(SMART), a continuously running systems diagnostic that alerts the user to certain types

 

of failures.

SMART Technology (Self-Monitoring,

Allows hard drives to monitor their own health and to raise flags if imminent failures

were predicted

SMART I – Drive Failure Prediction

Predicts failures before they occur. Tracks fault prediction and failure indication

 

parameters such as re-allocated sector count, spin retry count, calibration retry

SMART II – Off-Line Data Collection

count

 

By avoiding actual hard drive failures, SMART hard drives act as "insurance"

SMART III – Off-Line Read Scanning with

against unplanned user downtime and potential data loss from hard drive failure

Defect Reallocation

IOEDC: I/O Error Detection Circuitry

 

Detects errors in Read/Write buffers on HDD cache RAM

SMART IV – End-to-End CRC for hard

Interface in F10 setup provides confirmation of SMART IV support.
