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:
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

Visual Studio is a pretty big product and will take over 30GB of disk space after installation

LOL. It’s about half the size of recent Delphi versions.

Wow, Microsoft has come a long way:
MICROSOFT VISUAL STUDIO COMMUNITY 2015

IF YOU COMPLY WITH THESE LICENSE TERMS, YOU HAVE THE RIGHTS BELOW.
- INSTALLATION AND USE RIGHTS.
- Individual license. If you are an individual working on your own applications to sell or for any other purpose, you may use the software to develop and test those applications.
- Organization licenses. If you are an organization, your users may use the software as follows:
- Any number of your users may use the software to develop and test your applications released under Open Source Initiative (OSI) approved open source software licenses.
- Any number of your users may use the software to develop and test extensions to Visual Studio.
- Any number of your users may use the software to develop and test your applications as part of online or in person classroom training and education, or for performing academic research.

The license continues, but the above are the most important aspect to verify if you can use Visual Studio 2015 under that license.
