Hi all,
I've got 5 500GB SATA HDs that throw a red light when plugged into a
Promise SmartStor NAS box.
Stuck one in a generic external usb dock, and used Disk Utility to
zero it. Nothing logged as errors, but then as-is OS X doesn't do
SMART over USB. Pushed data thru it for a while,

The tools I found on MacUpdate seem useless; doesn't look like any of 'em

Bruce had recommended Smartmontools a while back, I think. Just started
reading thru it. Will this work?
could always use a spare Sh*t beater windows PC (runnin linux or a Live-CD)
to do SMART Checks. its what i do to keep my aging G3 in line.
