Check SMART Thresholds. This test checks to see whether SMART
thresholds have been exceeded.
The SMART thresholds indicate when a drive is likely to fail, based on the
number of errors that have been recorded through SMART (Self-Monitoring,
Analysis and Reporting Technology).
If any of the disk drives have detected a “threshold exceeded” condition, then
an AEN is logged to the 3DM Alarms page. Moreover, if anything unusual is
found during any self-test, it will be logged as an Alarm.
