HDDlife for Notebooks 4.2.204

At present, most notebooks are owned by specialists and managers and used as convenient tools. You can carry a notebook with you everywhere, having a kind of "mobile office" at hand. As such, portable computers often store quite valuable information. At the same time, it's no secret that the hard disk is one of the most vulnerable parts of a notebook. Frequent shakes, possible falls and continuous work under high temperature negatively influence the reliability of hard disks. Constant monitoring of your hard disk's condition is really quite necessary.

Actually, notebooks are ordinary computers. So you can use any programs that monitor hard disk health and temperature. However, there are some peculiarities that such programs can't take into account. First, the temperature in notebooks is often higher than the temperature of a desktop PC, which can lead to the appearance of a false alarm notification. Second, most programs don't take into account the fact that a notebook can work in an energy saving mode. In this case their frequent checks will "wake it up", and power consumption will grow dramatically.

Therefore, it's advisable to use special software for monitoring hard disks in notebooks. HDDlife® for Notebooks is the first program that takes into account all the peculiarities of the operation of a laptop computer. We should particularly mention that our program can detect different power schemes, so if one of them is applied, the program will not "wake up" the notebook. This helps to increase the performance of the notebook considerably without reducing the reliability of monitoring.

HDDlife® for Notebooks has all the features of HDDlife® Pro. It helps not only to monitor hard disk health and temperature, but also to adjust the noise level, view the amount of free space, and find out how long a disk has been working. Of course, our unique JustNow™ and AnywhereView™ technologies are applied in HDDlife® for Notebooks. They make the monitoring of hard disks very simple, quick and convenient.

Our software product protects the notebook owner from loss of valuable data caused by technical problems in hard disks.
