diskutil info / |grep "SMART"
which shows current SMART status - but I've seen that few
drives report SMART
status to diskutil - if you check with the gui Disk Utility it often reports
SMART status for a drive that diskutil doesn't.
Anyone know another way to probe SMART status?
OK. I've figured out one big detail but still don't know all the implications.
compare
diskutil info /
with
diskutil info disk0
and the second usually reports SMART status.
The first is a mountpoint or volume, the second a device. Volume's
don't do SMART.
