# check_drives_health.py # Drive Health Monitoring Script This script checks the SMART health status of all available drives on the system and sends notifications using the `ntfy` service. The script will alert you if any drives are failing and provide a summary of the health status for all drives. ## Prerequisites Before running the script, ensure you have the following installed: - **smartmontools** (to check drive SMART status) ```bash sudo apt install smartmontools ``` - **requests** Python library (for sending notifications) ```bash pip install requests ``` ## Usage 1. Clone or download the script to your machine. 2. Ensure you have proper permissions to run `smartctl` with `sudo`. 3. Edit the script to replace the ntfy URL (`https://ntfy.hrasci.eu/rpi5`) with your desired ntfy topic. 4. Run the script: ```bash sudo python3 drive_health.py ``` The script will: - List all available drives on the system. - Check the SMART health status of each drive. - Send notifications via `ntfy`: - If a drive is unhealthy, it sends an urgent notification with warning tags. - If all drives are healthy, it sends a low-priority notification. ## Example Notifications - **Healthy drives**: - Notification with the title "All Drives Healthy" and tags `ok`, `check`. - **Unhealthy drives**: - Notification with a title indicating the specific drive, an urgent priority, and warning tags `warning`, `skull`. # HDD.sh # Bash script for either telling all HDDs in system to spindown or checking if it is spinning or not **Prerequisites**: - `sudo apt install hdparm` - Drives are listed as `/dev/sdX` where `X` stands for their respective labeling for the system **Usage**: ```bash $ ./HDD.sh (1/2) - option 1) tell drives to spindown - option 2) check if drives are spinning or not
