Current version of gnome-disk-utility in 14.04 is 3.10.0-1ubuntu3. Searching through my history, i found that this package was never updated, surely not since 2015-09-19 so the bug is still valid (I am not home so I cannot try).

@Hans as reported: - option is 'grayed' - only affect 'Lucid' so that means 'transitional' mis-configuration when that report have been made as this was not a 'security' problem, this has never been backported; and as Lucid is now dead, that report is useless. ** Changed in: gnome-disk-utility (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed => Invalid -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-disk-utility in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1092900 Title: Gnome disk (gnome-disks) utility does not show USB drive has SMART enabled.
