A number of Free
Disk/Drive Monitoring softwares are available in online; ACRONIS
is one of them. Acronis®
Drive Monitor™
is a free, downloadable software
application developed by Acronis to monitor server, workstation and PC hard
disk drives.
There are three
unavoidable certainties in life: Death, Taxes and Hard Disk Drive Failures.
Acronis does not have
a solution for the first, we leave that to a higher authority; however, we can
make sure that your financial records, photos, videos and other items of
sentimental or monetary value are protected so that you can cherish the
memories and pay your taxes on time!
Computers have become
a necessary part of our daily lives and we have become dependent on instant
access to the data stored on the hard drives inside our PCs. Just about
everyone has either experienced a disk failure or knows someone that did. It’s
unavoidable as all disks eventually fail. This is why Acronis developed Acronis
Drive Monitor as a free tool for the community at large.
Acronis Drive Monitor
can help predict when a hard drive is about to fail, giving you the chance to
backup your data before disaster strikes. When Acronis Drive Monitor identifies
a problem, it generates an email or onscreen alert describing the specific
finding. It offers a simple and easy to understand explanation of the alert
guiding you to the steps you need to take to remedy the issue. A color coded
summary provides an overview of the disk’s health at a glance and weekly
reports summarize the findings.
