Hard Disk Sentinel is a professional and powerful HDD/SSD monitoring and analyzing tool for Windows and Linux platforms, developed by Heartfelt Development Services from Hungary. It is mainly used to monitor and alert hard drive activity and temperature to help users avoid data loss before the hard drive fails.

Hard Disk Sentinel uses the built-in S.M.A.R.T. monitoring system to monitor, analyze and report various hard disk status, including health, performance, temperature, failure and other important parameters, and can find, test, diagnose, and fix some problems with disk drives. It not only provides complete text descriptions to prompt and display/report the most comprehensive information about your computer’s internal or external hard drives, but also offers many different alarms and reporting options to ensure the maximum security of your valuable data on disk.

Hard Disk Sentinel is also an excellent data protection solution to prevent hard drive failures and data loss. Because it comes with a very excellent disk health rating system, which is very sensitive to all kinds of disk problems, even a minor hard drive problem will not be missed. In addition, it also offers scheduled and automatic disk backup options to prevent data loss due to things like malware or accidental deletions.
