How can i disable it, do i really need it on my system ... inputs
really appreciated.
well, if you configure your disks to enable SMART, it can provide
advance disk failure information. if the disks are on hardware PERC
raid, then you probably cant use SMART, and instead would use whatever
RAID controller monitoring software dell provides...
otherwise,, um, like any service,...
# chkconfig smartd off
# service smartd stop
will disable it from running on the next boot, and stop it now.
