I must admit that in reality drives die to fast for SMART to catch it. 
heh..yeah..that's why i kept it off on maxtor.
 :wink: 

i know what it does and how, but...mhm...hehm...there were some system slowdowns happening for no apparant reason with my system though (prior to it failing).
now i'm tying to remember were these slowdowns present from the beginning etc.
hehe...
you know, you can never really tell for sure; os is just too complicated system; if it was car engine i would know for sure ok.

i was recording with vhs for this one or two days i had no pc; you know...it doesn't have hdd, so it can't fail in that awfull way.
 :wink: 
infact, vhs is bulletproof recording compared to all the things that can go wrong on pc.
there seems to be some issue on "HTV2" broadcasts lately; some programmes make bt go bonkers (random blue-screen..seems to hapen when screen goes black or so...like they didn't calibarate sync gear properly, or something). so i record this to vhs and worry later how to fix it (if recording acts weirdly too...i still didn't try to cap that recording...).
perhaps i'll need philips card for HTV2?
 :D 
i'll tell you more when i find out more.
