Question : S.M.A.R.T not enabled

Hello and thank you for taking the time to help me out.

I partitioned a driver in a new pc toady. I installed our desktop monitoring agent and its saying that disk is not SMART enabled.

How do i enable Self-Monitoring, Analysis, and Reporting Technology?
Is the setting in BIOS?
Machine is DELL Optiplex 980

I Figured i ask before i start searching around.

Thank you..

Answer : S.M.A.R.T not enabled

SMART in many cases comes disabled in BIOS
In some cases you can put it on/off in BIOS
In others, it comes activated by default and you cannot put it Off

Many times it comes disabled cause its a waste of efficiency in ultra fast disks/motherboards
