Hi, I noticed that the output of commands like e.g. 1) smartctl -c 2) smartctl -A 3) smartctl -l selftest looks fairly different for IDE and SCSI drives. I expected that e.g. (1) would give me all the infos of the SMART capabilities of my SCSI drive as well as the status of a running offline self-test, which is not the case. I thought that (2) would look comparable for IDE and SCSI, but the SCSI drives I use do not show up with the typical table of various attributes I was used from my ide drives. In case (3) there is a slightly different layout of the outputted table. Does it only mean that there is a different code responsible for that output and yet simply doesn't have the same functionality like in case of IDE drives? Marko |

IDE and SCSI have different SMART functionality. About the only thing=20 that is the same is the name.
