Conventional wisdom, please. Do we keep SMART monitoring
enabled in the machine BIOS with WINXP? OR is WINXP able
by some alchemy to poll the hardware or hardware driver
directly irrespective of SMART being enabled in the BIOS?
In short, does WINXP need SMART enabled in the BIOS in
order to provide disk failure predictions in the EVENTS
VIEWER?
