There are three unavoidable certainties in life: death, taxes and hard disk drive failures.
Acronis does not have a solution for the first, we leave that to a higher authority; however, we can make sure that your financial records, photos, videos and other items of sentimental or monetary value are protected so that you can cherish the memories and pay your taxes on time!
Computers have become a necessary part of our daily lives and we have become dependent on instant access to the data stored on the hard drives inside our PCs. Just about everyone has either experienced a disk failure or knows someone who did. It's unavoidable as all disks eventually fail. This is why Acronis developed Acronis Drive Monitor as a free tool for the community at large.
Early warning to save data
Acronis Drive Monitor can help predict when a hard drive is about to fail, giving you the chance to backup your data before disaster strikes.
When Acronis Drive Monitor identifies a problem, it generates an e-mail or onscreen alert describing the specific finding. It offers a simple and easy to understand explanation of the alert, guiding you to the steps you need to take to remedy the issue. A colour-coded summary provides an overview of the disk's health at a glance and weekly reports summarise the findings.
