Is there a DOS utility that will read S.M.A.R.T. parameters? The only one listed on https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_S.M.A.R.T._tools is Spinrite, but the version 6 I have either isn't doing it, or the drive doesn't support it.
I was going to say Spinrite, Cant remember which version I have it's definitely not the latest.
Seatools has a basic check, it'll at least say if the drive has SMART or not.

Hiren's Boot CD had one or two utilities that did the trick. I remember that one screen in MHDD listed SMART parameters, and other utility showed the parameters as graphic bars.
I have traveled across the universe and through the years to find Her.
Sometimes going all the way is just a start...
definitely MHDD, press F8

MHDD does the job, thank you all! Trying this out reminded me of another that I had forgotten about, HDAT2.
I use Hard Disk Sentinel DOS version - it is also free: https://www.hdsentinel.com/hard_disk_sentinel_dos.php
SMARTUDM - small (37 kB) HDD S.M.A.R.T. Viewer for DOS.
SMARTUDM supports drives using external UDMA/SATA/RAID controllers (HPT/Promise/FastTrack).

This looks great too.

Going to also try this out.
Anyone have a Wikipedia account they use to update entries? Looks like we have a few more that could be added to the one I state in the original message.
