Samsung T7 SSD Not Recognized #86

Open verax-satya opened 1 year ago

verax-satya commented 1 year ago

Hi! I am using this software with DiskDX and it looks like the Samsung T7 SSD is not compatible with this SAT SMART driver. Any solutions? 6c94605d-0007-4330-907e-60380a362ce5

I think you stand a better chance of getting an answer from DriveDx since the original developer appears to have abandoned supporting it here for several years now. Start by checking the DriveDx FAQ's https://binaryfruit.com/drivedx/kb.

All supported vendors are seen in /Library/Extensions/SATSMARTDriver.kext/Contents/Info.plist (show content) I think, new vendors, new hard disk types must be append here, too. SATSMARTDriver is signed, but I don't know if changing the info.plist requires re-signing.

The next adjustment is required in SMART tool itself.

More about see smartmontools https://github.com/smartmontools/smartmontools/releases You could install smartmontools (gives an dmg) and update their database too. smartmontools works with SATSMARTDriver from binaryfruit (DriveDX)
