What do these plugins better than the stock snmp plugins?

 I'm not sure if you can get any SMART drive status from snmpd/HP, but
 you can check RAID status on local disks, and there are also ways to
 check ESX datastore free space usage too.

Power Supply Status?

Have a look at the check_esx.pl plugin. You can do quite a bit with it.

gin

It just requires the VMware Perl SDK kit to be installed on the machine
you want to connect from, in this instance, Nagios.
