smartmontools

[John Summerfield <debian@ComputerDatasafe.com.au>]

I've fallen in love with smartmontools. I think it should be on every 
Linux box that has disk drives.

For those unfamiliar with it, it monitors the health of disk drives 
(SCSI and ATA, SATA support coming), and can warn of impending failure 
in time to get your data off the failing drive.
