+Smartctl (Self-Monitoring, Analysis and Reporting Technology) is a command line
+utility where smart disks can be checked for errors and info extracted.
+
+
+##Example:1 Check Whether Smart Capability is enabled or not for the disk##
+
+`$ smartctl -i /dev/sdb`
+`smartctl 6.2 2013-07-26 r3841 [x86_64-linux-3.13.0-32-generic] (local build)`

+__Short Test__
+
+`$ smartctl --test=short /dev/sdb`

+OR

+
+Note : Short test will take maximum 2 minutes whereas in long test there is no time restriction because it read & verify every segment of the entire disk.
