## S.M.A.R.T
This is k-smart, made by Thomas Kaiser in 2015 and made available for
DL via the link below.
Its a clickable wrapper for smartctl taken from smartmontools.
Here is the German page covering the story:

The app opens a Terminal like window and queries all devices it can
find for smart values.
Quite useful, if you want to check your volume�s health from Userland.
The output can be saved as text file via the menu.
One should not over estimate the SMART values from a given day, but by
checking things periodically its possible to see values becoming worse
or errors being reported in the drive�s log.
If you wish to get into the SMART details, Wikipedia has them.
