You have hardware RAID right? I think 3Ware is one of the RAID controllers |
| 8 |
that smartctl can query "through" and access the disks directly - I dont |
| 9 |
know what other brands it can work through this way. (Maybe ask on the |

Some RAID controllers have Linux utilities available that allow you to |

control the card or access the disks from the command-line - check with |
| 14 |
your card manufacturer. |
