The LaTeX smartdiagram pkg, based on Tikz, gives very nice results

I have some notes and examples of use with Quarto if you're interested.

Tell you what I need to do first, though, is work out why the *%$@% my external HDD won’t spin down on my RPi4.
No amount of hdparm’ing or exclusion from smartd seems to have any effect. It seems fine on other devices.
It’s going to drive me nuts.

TrueNAS was mostly middleware over the same OpenZFS. Three things Ubuntu won't bundle: scrub/snapshot schedules (sanoid or zfs-auto-snapshot + a monthly scrub timer), failure alerts (zfs-zed + smartd), and a pool-status UI. compression=zstd + autotrim on SSDs. Straight upgrade otherwise.

It very much bothers me that #smartd didn't email me about this. The only reason I noticed it is because 'snapraid smart' output says that the chance of the drive failing in the next year is 99%. #selfhosting

i think we're arriving at a better expression though:
`(S/../([123].|08|09)/6/06:001|L/../01/./03:005)`
this does a long test on the first day of every month, waiting 5 hours between tests, and then does short tests on all subsequent saturdays, waiting 1 hour between.

you'll probably also want to start `smartd` with the `-s` flag, to make it keep last scan time as a state file, we say `smartd_flags="-s /var/db/smartd/"` in our `rc.conf` (freebsd)
for using a directory, the trailing / is important (it's in the docs but we found out the hard way)

cool `smartd` trick that people don't seem to be widely aware of is that you can schedule scans in smartd.conf: `DEVICESCAN -a -m smart -s (S/../../6/06:001|L/../../2/03:008)`
this schedules a short test every saturday starting at 0600, waiting an hour between drives, and long tests every […]

for monitoring HDDs there's smartd which iirc comes with smartmontools and you could make it send you a notif via ntfy.sh whenever something concerning happens
