: IFC-PCIE2U3 and S.M.A.R.T. Information
: nbourbaki November 29, 2010, 04:38:59 PM

I'm using a IFC-PCIE2U3 USB 3.0 card in a Windows 7 x64 machine, hooked up to a pair of Vantec NST-380S3-BK enclosures with Samsung F4 drives.  I'm unable to retrieve S.M.A.R.T status when hooked up to the Buffalo USB 3.0 card.  When the drives are in an eSata dock they show S.M.A.R.T. information.

 

Any help would be appreciated.

nbourbaki,

 

I'm not sure if our USB 3.0  supports SMART data, it should though.  What utility are you using to read the SMART data from the drives?
