| Summary | 0000131: S.M.A.R.T. cannot distinguish between two identical disk models | ||||
| Description | I have two Samsung SP1614C Serial ATA disks. SpeedFan reports exactly identical values for both of them (temperature, up-counters, etc.) therefore I assume that it reads only the data from one of the disks and presents them for both of them | ||||

Are you sure? Did you compare the SERIALs? If you have a SIL controller, it's that one that you should blame. The worst drivers ever :-( |
|
|
The serials are different, but all other values are exactly identical (even e.g. the power on hours count although the first disc is about half a year older than the other). I have an ASUS K8V-SE Deluxe and I think that the SATA controller is built into the VIA chipset, but I am not sure. |

|
Additional note: I sent you a report out of SpeedFan just an hour ago. From there you can see the parameters. |

The data returned from the controller is somewhat garbled. This is what should be returned (this is from my pc): Found Maxtor 6Y080P0 (82,0GB) Found Maxtor 6Y080P0 Firmware revision <YAR41BW0> (82,0GB) Serial <...> --> ATA device --> Fixed Drive --> S.M.A.R.T.
