Most computer users know that the hard disk is one of the slowest components of a computer. But besides the lower speed, hard disks also have other problems. Because they have a lot of moving parts, they are likely to break down earlier than other components, putting your precious personal information in danger. Moreover, bad sectors are another thing that affects hard disks. These are parts of the hard disk that cannot be used any more and any information stored there becomes unusable. That's why it would be a good idea to monitor the hard disk and to check it regularly for errors. Because no one knows when disaster strikes. A program that can help you with that is HDDlife Professional. It's a software that can continuously monitor the health status of the hard disk, letting the user know if there are problems.

The software installs in a flash and it supports most versions of Windows and most hard disks, no matter the type or the size.

The interface has a graphical form and it continuously displays the health status as a percentage and also the current temperature in case the hard disk has a temperature sensor. It also displays the hard disk usage in real time. The health information is obtained by analyzing the SMART parameters. Most modern hard disks have this feature.

The information displayed in the program's interface is also available in the system taskbar, as an icon, making it easy to spot by the user. HDDlife Professional features numerous options for modifying the look and feel of the program. Besides that, all the information provided by the application can be saved as a report file, for analyzing it later.

HDDlife Professional adds a green bar over the drive icons in My Computer, displaying available hard disk space. It can also adjust the speed of the hard disk in relation to its performance, thus making it quieter. The program features an impressive number of different languages to choose from.

Pros

It displays in real time the health status of the hard disk and also its temperature, letting the user know if there is a chance for data loss. It can also save all the information as a log file, for analyzing it later.

Cons

It lacks complex options that some advanced users may want. HDDlife Professional is the perfect program for monitoring the health of any hard disk.
