"Detailed information and excellent support"

Version: Hard Disk Sentinel 3.70
ProsI couldn't get my external 3 TB disk drive to work on an older PC and emailed their support team. I received a prompt reply from Janos, one of the developers, advising me my HD enclosure's firmware needed to be updated--and he gave me the update link as well. That's reason enough to buy it.
ConsCan't find anything.
SummaryComprehensive product offering extremely detailed disk drive information and backed by excellent support.

"Works Very Well, Not Very Elegant Looking Though"
November 17, 2009
|
By alm1024
|
Version: Hard Disk Sentinel 3.00
ProsCan actively monitor hard drive temperature and shut down the computer if things get a bit hot.It actually works with all of my pass-through drives in my raid array!
ConsFree version is missing a fair bit of functionality which is a bit of a tease because you can see the options, but not check them.
SummaryI agree with the editor's review, it will not win any beauty prizes but it get the job done. In the free version you can set the computer to shut down when it hits the caution (yellow) threshold but not the critical (red) threshold, take note though that you can change what temperatures these alerts occur so you can still choose to shut down you computer at your desired HDD temperature cut-off.The free version a bit restrictive, and you can see all the cool looking options that are in the pro version but you cannot select them.I have used several similar programs (I will not name them!) and they have turned out to be useless because they just monitor the temperature and watch your HDD's slowly cook while you're at work/school instead of shutting down your PC to protect your precious data. I nearly had a fit when my four new 1TB HDD's were nearly too hot to touch and the "SMART" monitoring program I was using was happily telling me my HDD's are roasting but not doing anything about it. This program excels in that respect because it not only monitors but it acts if something is wrong! (That is if you set it up properly)In terms of functionality it leaves other similar programs for dead, it really is a stunner in that respect. In terms of looks it is very bland and sometimes the layout feels a bit messy.

"Seems accurate"
November 15, 2009
|
By Steve The Wire Puller
|
Version: Hard Disk Sentinel 3.00
ProsSeems accurate, good layout and gui, easy to find info. Seems to have the info you need to make an assement of a hard drive. Failry nag free -- has one link asking you to register. Paid versions have lots of extra features.
ConsPerhaps too much info. The pay version has a clock sync for instance, but perhaps that is to ensure proper backups.
SummaryI've had this for 2 days and looked at 4 drives so far and it seems accurate -- one ready to fail, two healthy, one with a moved sector. Two of these were external drives. There are 4 versions free, standard, pro and enterprise. The price for standard or pro to auto backup might be justified. But if it's just to check a drive on the way out the free version would do. I don't know how well this compares with others as this is the first I tried.

"Dangerous software?"
June 09, 2009

By ronnewman
|
Version: Hard Disk Sentinel 2
ProsIt seems to have caused serious hard drive problems.
ConsI suspect that the annoying screen pop-up saying 'Windows no disk' might be caused by HDsentinel in my computer. Also my hard drive was showing absolutely full when it couldn't have been. The problems disappeared when I removed HDsentinel. Suspect.
SummaryI'm very suspicious that it was this software which was causing my HD problem and 'Windows no disk' screen popup/
