Hey folks, last month I bought a Samsung D3 Station 5TB USB 3.0 drive. I've tried accessing the SMART data through StableBit Scanner but it's not an option when I right-click on the disk.
Following some tips from another thread, I have installed the latest public beta. I've also gone into the advanced settings and checked the box for no WMI in the SMART section, and restarted the scanner service. Next, I checked the unsafe box in the DirectIO section and again rebooted the service, still no dice.
Am I doing something wrong? The drive inside is the same ST5000DM000-1FK178 that's in my Seagate Backup Plus I posted about awhile back, for whatever that's worth.
I want to keep this drive if I can, since they don't tend to come with 3-year warranties anymore, but I don't feel comfortable running it if I can't keep an eye on it with scanner.
