It won't fix your system if something goes wrong, but this utility is great at giving real-time information about the health of your hard drive. SIGuardian's interface is pretty basic, but its well-organized tabs simplify the viewing of comprehensive hard-drive details, SMART values, and options. The taskbar icon displays your hard drive's current temperature and the 15 SMART attributes, including threshold, worst, and raw values. Simple indicators tell you the status of each attribute, making it easy to identify those performing below the optimum level. Pop-up warnings and e-mail reports are also nice touches for safeguarding your system. Aside from the detailed help file, we appreciate the user-friendly pop-up explanations that appear each time the mouse pointer hovers over an attribute. By default, SIGuardian analyzes your hard drive every hour, though you can modify it to suit your tastes. This handy and effective tool can help computer-savvy users monitor their hard drives for potential issues.
