Recently I received an Oyen Digital MiniPro USB 3.0 USB-SATA 2.5" hard drive enclosure:

smartctl requires '-d sat' on its command line to function.

I have the following little tweaks to the systemd service file:

1. Add ExecReload= to make systemctl reload smartd.service work as expected
2. Make stdout go to syslog by default.
3. Remove the EnvironmentFile= line completely. The rationale here is that local adjustments to the smartd command line can be made by copying the service file to /etc/systemd. The best way of course would be to make all these parameters work via /etc/smartd.conf so that init would not have to do anything with this.

If you disagree with me on 3., at least use EnvironmentFile=-/etc/sysconfig/smartmontools, so that systemd does not fail to start the file when /etc/sysconfig/smartmontools is not present.
