i am trying to do all the relevant testing to keep an eye (or two) on my drives. i recently moved from usb boot drives to a ssd. and i wanted to set up smart testing on it.
when i went to add the test in the gui there ssd cannot be selected in the drop down menu. i know this was mentioned in a thread from about 7 months ago but it never got to any conclusion.
do you need to test the ssd like the hdd or is the ssd different and just needs monitored ?
i'm sure there are many people using ssd as a boot drive - what are they doing to monior it ?
i read threads advising schedules for testing there hdd and it would be nice if there was also advice for ssds.
why can't the ssd be selected when creating a smart test ? is it because it is a ssd or the boot drive ?
that is quite a few questions - feel free to answer them all :)
