<title>Check your hard disk for problems</title>

 <title>Checking the hard disk</title>
 Hard disks have a built-in health-check tool called <app>SMART</app>
 (Self-Monitoring, Analysis, and Reporting Technology), which continually
 checks the disk for potential problems. SMART also warns you if the disk
 is about to fail, helping you avoid loss of important data.

Although SMART runs automatically, you can also check your disk’s
 health by running the <app>Disks</app> application:

<steps>
 <title>Check your disk’s health using the Disks application</title>

<item>
 Open <app>Disks</app> from the <gui>Activities</gui> overview.
 </item>
 <item>
 Select the disk you want to check from the list of storage devices on
 the left. Information and status of the disk will be shown.
 </item>
 <item>
 Click the menu button and select <gui>SMART Data & Self-Tests…</gui>.
 The <gui>Overall Assessment</gui> should say “Disk is OK”.
 </item>
 <item>
 See more information under <gui>SMART Attributes</gui>, or click the
 <gui style="button">Start Self-test</gui> button to run a self-test.
 </item>

</steps>

<title>What if the disk isn’t healthy?</title>

Even if the <gui>Overall Assessment</gui> indicates that the disk
 isn’t healthy, there may be no cause for alarm. However, it’s better
 to be prepared with a <link xref="backup-why">backup</link> to prevent data
 loss.

If the status says “Pre-fail”, the disk is still reasonably healthy but
 signs of wear have been detected which mean it might fail in the near future.
 If your hard disk (or computer) is a few years old, you are likely to see
 this message on at least some of the health checks. You should
 <link xref="backup-how">backup your important files regularly</link> and check
 the disk status periodically to see if it gets worse.

If it gets worse, you may wish to take the computer/hard disk to a
 professional for further diagnosis or repair.
