| Code: | root@death:/home/dave# smartctl -a /dev/hda|grep Model
Device Model: IC35L120AVV207-0
root@death:/home/dave# smartctl -a /dev/hda|grep Power_On
9 Power_On_Hours 0x0012 098 098 000 Old_age Always - 19132 |
That's over double your 13 months, and that's power-on time  .
(That's a 120GB Deskstar 180GXP.)
