What's the best, of what do you use, to monitor the health of your hard drives? I'm looking for a setup for my current externals, and eventually for my server once its configured.
You might try Acronis Drive Monitor (completely free). Apart from monitoring SMART data on-the-fly (yes it runs in the background) it also has a feature that alerts you to doing backups (with Acronis True Image of course) but that can be turned-off. This found a failing drive for me.
