The defaults below are 7 seconds for both reads and writes: readsetting=70 writesetting=70 # We need a list of the SMART-enabled drives on the system. Choose one of these # three methods to provide the list. Comment out the two unused sections of code. # 1. A string constant; just key in the devices you want to report on here: #drives="da1 da2 da3 da4 da5 da6 da7 da8 ada0" # 2. A systcl-based technique suggested on the FreeNAS forum: #drives=$(for drive in $(sysctl -n kern.disks); do \ #if [ "$(/usr/local/sbin/smartctl -i /dev/${drive} | grep "SMART support is: Enabled" | awk '{print $3}')" ] #then printf ${drive}" "; fi done | awk '{for (i=NF; i!=0 ; i--) print $i }') # 3.
