DA Drive Analyzer Now Available for Windows PC with On-Device AI
Learn MoreIntroducing DA DRIVE ANALYZER
DA Drive Analyzer® is a service that monitors the health of your storage drives, predicts drive problems, and alerts you to impending drive failures. With this service, you can view a wide variety of drive health metrics gathered from S.M.A.R.T. and other health logs. And when either our AI or threshold-based system detects abnormal drive activity, the service will issue alerts so you can identify vulnerable drives and protect your data in advance.

ADDITIONAL QUESTIONS
How can I start using DA Drive Analyzer?
You can start using DA Drive Analyzer by following these simple steps.
Do I need to be connected to the internet to use DA Drive Analyzer?
DA Drive Analyzer requires an internet connection to work for drives connected to NAS devices, using applications such as the QNAP NAS App and the ASUSTOR NAS App to deliver the service.
DA Drive Analyzer works offline to a limited extent for drives connected to PCs. When the DA SmartQuest PC application is installed in Standalone Mode (as opposed to Cloud Mode) it generates health predictions using an on-device AI that is included with the application. However, other features such as threshold-based alerts and detailed drive health metric displays require an internet connection and can only be accessed when the application is installed in Cloud Mode.
Why is DA Drive Analyzer giving me one type of alert, such as Threshold-Based Alerts, but not another, such as AI-Based Alerts?
If only the Drive Health Prediction or Symptom Radar Chart features show drive problems, but not the other, which one should I listen to?
Can my drive return to a healthy state after being predicted as at-risk by DA Drive Analyzer's AI?
What should I do if I receive an alert from DA Drive Analyzer?
If I receive an alert, how long does my drive have before it fails?

What is the difference between DA SmartQuest and DA Monitor?
DA SmartQuest and DA Monitor are both apps that run on your PC. A key difference, however, is that DA SmartQuest can generate and display drive failure predictions by itself, whereas DA Monitor displays drive failure predictions generated by DA SmartQuest or another app. DA SmartQuest operates as a paid subscription service, whereas DA Monitor can be downloaded and used by anyone for free.
