Hi-

A system I just built shows "HDD S.M.A.R.T. enabled" during the BIOS bootup
phase, and I'm wondering just what this is. I can't find any reference to
it in the manual for the mobo (and EPOX). THe drive is a Western Digital
UDMA 4.3 and the chip is an AMD K2-6 350.

Anybody know what this might be?

Thanks-
