<title>Verificar os problemas do disco duro</title>

 <title>Verificar o disco duro</title>
  <p>Os discos duros dispõem dum verificador interno de saúde denominado <app>SMART</app> (Tecnologia de automonitorização, análise e relatorio, «Self-Monitoring, Analysis, and Reporting Technology»), o qual está continuamente procurando possíveis problemas e pode lhe avisar quando o disco esteja a ponto de falhar. Isto resulta útil para evitar futuras pérdidas de dados importantes.</p>

  <p>Although SMART runs automatically, you can also check your disk’s
 health by running the <app>Disks</app> application:</p>

<steps>
 <title>Check your disk’s health using the Disks application</title>

  <item>
    <p>Abra <app>Discos</app> desde a vista de <gui>Atividades</gui>.</p>
  </item>
  <item>
    <p>Selecione o disco duro que quer verificar na lista de dispositivos de armazenamento da esquerda. Mostrar-se-á a informação sobre o disco e seu estado.</p>
  </item>
  <item>
    <p>Click the menu button and select <gui>SMART Data &amp; Self-Tests…</gui>.
    The <gui>Overall Assessment</gui> should say “Disk is OK”.</p>
  </item>
  <item>
    <p>Consulte mais informação em <gui>Atributos SMART</gui>, ou carregue o botão <gui style="button">Iniciar autocomprovação</gui> para executar este tipo de prova.</p>
  </item>

 <title>What if the disk isn’t healthy?</title>

  <p>Even if the <gui>Overall Assessment</gui> indicates that the disk
  <em>isn’t</em> healthy, there may be no cause for alarm. However, it’s better
  to be prepared with a <link xref="backup-why">backup</link> to prevent data
  loss.</p>

  <p>If the status says “Pre-fail”, the disk is still reasonably healthy but
 signs of wear have been detected which mean it might fail in the near future.
 If your hard disk (or computer) is a few years old, you are likely to see
 this message on at least some of the health checks. You should
 <link xref="backup-how">backup your important files regularly</link> and check
 the disk status periodically to see if it gets worse.</p>

  <p>Se vai a pior, pode querer levar a computador ou o disco duro a um profissional para uma melhor análise ou reparo.</p>
