GSmartControl has a FreeBSD version and it seems like it would be a good way to view the SMART performance of an array's worth of drives. Has anyone given it a go?

Wouldn't work without modifying some stuff about the jail. the jail, has no access to the hardware, or smart information. If you can figure out how to do it then go for it, but otherwise freenas already has built in smart tests / email reporting you can setup.

Yeah, thanks. I have SMART working, but was looking for an interface to see what's going on with the drives at a glance.

There's another thread where a guy had something in Alpha but I haven't heard back from him. I think he posted about a month ago asking if anyone was interested.
