A typical reason why SMART does not work on Windows is an (S)ATA driver simulating an SCSI device to the OS. http://smartmontools.sourceforge.net/#FAQ-win-ata-as-scsi It is possible for these drivers to provide ATA SMART functionality also, but this is usually not implemented by the driver vendor. Please provide more info about your windows version, controller type and the smartctl error message for further help. Cheers, Christian |
