Closed: HDD Guardian – Home
Posted by jpluimers on 2017/08/16
Too bad: it was fun while it lasted.
Mid april 2017 [WayBack] HDD Guardian – Home closed down, so the latest commit removed all the [WayBack] HDD Guardian – Source Code.
HDD Guardian provides a Windows front-end for smartctl, a utility which monitors your hard drive(s) and SSD(s) for health status, taking advantage of S.M.AR.T.
The WayBack machine and Archive.is have archived some links though:
- 2017: [Archive.is] [WayBack] HDD Guardian – Home – most recent home page
- 2017: WayBack: HDD Guardian – Documentation – Documentation – Supported/unsupported controllers
- 2016: WayBack: HDD Guardian – Documentation – News
- 2016: WayBack: HDD Guardian – Documentation – FAQ / Known Issues
- 2017: [Archive.is] HDD Guardian – Source Code – Changesets
- 2017: HDD Guardian – Download: HDD Guardian 0.7.1 (though the downloads themselves are not available).
Anyone interested in getting it before codeplex itself shuts down:
git svn clone https://hddguardian.svn.codeplex.com/svn
Edit 20210909:
Note that a while ago, the salvaged source code got pushed to GitHub: [Wayback/Archive.is] native-api/hddguardian: A GUI app to watch and manage HDDs’ S.M.A.R.T., based on smartmontools. Salvaged from https://hddguardian.codeplex.com
