Long Description 1:
SSDReporter checks the health of your internal Solid State Disks ('SSD' aka 'Flash Storage'). Since SSDs have a limited life-time determined by the number of write operations it is important to keep an eye on your SSD status. SSDReporter can warn you by e-mail or on-screen each time the health of your SSD decreases and/or when the health falls below the 'warning' or 'error' thresholds.
Long Description 2:
SSDReporter is an application that checks the health of your internal Solid State Disks ('SSD' aka 'Flash Storage'). Since SSDs have a limited life-time determined by the number of write operations it is important to keep an eye on your SSD status. SSDReporter can warn you by e-mail or on-screen each time the health of your SSD decreases and/or when the health falls below the 'warning' or 'error' thresholds. The current status of your SSDs is also always easily recognizable because SSDReporter changes its icon (optionally in the menubar) from green to yellow (warning threshold) and finally red (error threshold) as the SSD health decreases.
Limitations & Compatibility:
Only 'internal' SSDs are supported, disks connected via USB & FireWire do not work at all with SSDReporter.
eSATA & ThunderBolt connected SSDs may work if the enclosure is S.M.A.R.T.-compatible.
SSDReporter works with all internal SSDs that support S.M.A.R.T. in online mode and export useful health/lifetime attributes.
SSD models that are known not to work for various reasons include:
the SSDs built into the Early 2015 and Early 2016 MacBook 12' are incompatible
the SSDs built into the Late 2016 MacBook Pro (TouchBar) are incompatible
the 'SEAGATE 600 SSD Series' is incompatible
a few 2013 and 2014 MacBookAir models contain incompatible 'TOSHIBA' SSDs
some 'Micron' and 'Crucial' SSDs are incompatible
some 'OCZ' SSDs including the ARC, ONYX, AGILITY4, VECTOR & VERTEX but excluding the TRION are incompatible
most 'OWC' SSDs including the AURA, MERCURY & ELECTRA are incompatible
