Stellar Drive Monitor
Stellar Drive Monitor is a powerful software that continuously checks the storage drive’s overall performance. It detects and alerts the user about any anomaly on the hard drive. This feature provides valuable information on all the SMART attributes related to the storage drive through seven data columns accompanied by a graphical representation for quick reference. It allows the user to save the report for future reference or comparative analysis of HDD health checks. Stellar Drive Monitor is a comprehensive hard drive health check tool that facilitates hard disk scanning for bad sectors. It thoroughly scans the selected drive to find any bad sectors present on the drive. The software conducts a systematic hard drive bad sector check and displays them in a block table format. One more distinctive feature of Stellar Drive Monitor is the built-in disk cloning option. Users can easily create a replica of any drive by copying all the data to a target drive.

SystemRescue
SystemRescue is a Linux system rescue toolkit available as a bootable medium for administrating or repairing your system and data after a crash. It aims to provide an easy way to carry out admin tasks on your computer, such as creating and editing the hard disk partitions. It comes with a lot of Linux system utilities such as GParted, fsarchiver, filesystem tools and basic tools (editors, midnight commander, network tools). It can be used for both Linux and windows computers, and on desktops as well as servers. This rescue system requires no installation as it can be booted from a CD/DVD drive or USB stick, but it can be installed on the hard disk if you wish. The kernel supports all important file systems (ext4, xfs, btrfs, vfat, ntfs), as well as network filesystems such as Samba and NFS.

GSmartControl
GSmartControl is a graphical user interface for smartctl (from smartmontools package), which is a tool for querying and controlling SMART (Self-Monitoring, Analysis, and Reporting Technology) data on modern hard disk and solid-state drives. It allows you to inspect the drive's SMART data to determine its health, as well as run various tests on it. GSmartControl supports all major desktop operating systems, including Linux, Windows, macOS, FreeBSD, and other BSD-style operating systems. Self-monitoring, analysis, and reporting technology, or SMART, is a monitoring system for hard drives to detect and report various indicators of reliability, in the hope of anticipating failures. SMART is implemented inside the drives, providing several ways of monitoring the drive's health. It may present information about general health, various drive attributes (for example, the number of unreadable sectors), error logs, and so on.
