S.M.A.R.T. stands for Self-Monitoring Analysis and Reporting Technology. S.M.A.R.T. technology was developed by a number of major hard disk drive manufacturers to increase the reliability of hard drives. It is a technology that enables the PC to predict the future failure of hard disk drives. S.M.A.R.T. technology has become an industry standard for hard drive manufacturers.

Is the capacity for all hard disk 2.5GB?
The first hard drives were only a couple of megabytes, while modern hard drives are 3TB and beyond. As technology progresses, hard drives will likely continue to increase in capacity. Therefore, not all hard drives are 2.5GB in size.
Is smart a diagnostic feature for hard drives?
Yes, SMART is a diagnostic and preventive program that is activated through the BIOS.
What is the Internal technology that most hard drives use today?
EIDE
What technology standard is used to govern how drives such as CD-ROM drives Zip drives and hard drives can interface with a system?
Enhanced Integrated Drive Electronics (EIDE)
A technology that configures two or more hard drives to work together as an array of drives is called?
Random Array of Inexpensive Drives R A I D
What are some recent advances in hard disk technology?
Magnetic Platter based Hard disk drives are widely used but Solid State Drives using Flash Memories providing less seek time - Low Latency are recent advances in Hard disk Technology.
what hard drive technology is used to predict when a drive is likely to fail?
Smart
Which ATA standard for hard drives first introduce SMART?
ATA-3 introduced S.M.A.R.T.
What does a SATA cable do?
SATA, or serial advanced technology attachment, connects the motherboard to hard drives and optical drives. This cable is inserted into the SATA slot on the motherboard.
What will replace hard disk drives?
Solid State Drives are currently replacing hard drives in most desktop and laptop computers, and have already replaced them completely in tablets, smartphones, and portable media players. Solid state drives use much of the same technology found in USB flash drives and SD cards.
