DriveSentry

DriveSentry is a desktop app (Windows/macOS/Linux) that monitors SSDs/HDDs/NAS volumes and turns messy SMART stats, NVMe logs, and OS event errors into a simple “risk score” with clear next actions. It continuously tracks temperature spikes, reallocated sectors, CRC errors, wear leveling, and sudden performance drops, then alerts you before failure becomes irreversible. The app also runs lightweight scheduled self-tests, verifies backups by sampling real file restores, and generates a plain-English report you can hand to IT or a repair shop. This is a combination traditional + AI app: traditional collection/monitoring plus an AI layer that explains anomalies and prioritizes what to replace first. Realistically, you won’t beat enterprise tools on breadth, but you can win on clarity, consumer pricing, and cross-platform support that actually works.
