I'm attaching here the report for a Toshiba 8TB 3.5" HDD, model MG05ACA800E. It's not in current smartctl database.

This hdd spins at 7200 rpm and is defined on documentation as "HDD Enterprise Capacity - Engineered for Mid-line / Nearline Business Critical Workloads".

Windows Vista features UAC - user access control

By default application are denied grants, needed to access raw hardware, including reading SMART, more so for running SMART tests

The shell exension needs to take this into account and run them in "elevated" mode

Maybe tools like might be used ​http://www.ntwind.com/software/utilities/hstart.html

version 5.41, 3256

If I run self-test on SATA drive, smartctl says that testing has begun, but actually it hasn't. Do not take atention at "interrupted self-test" in logs, it was made a long time ago.

If I run self-test on SAS disk, self-test starts and finishes successfully.

The problem can be:

1. Incorrect call from smartctl
2. Driver bug
3. Firmware bug

If you think that the problem lies out of smartmontools, may you create as much as possible simple code which runs self test only? I could make request to LSI support team using it. LSI doesnt want to deal with third-party soft like smartmontools directly.

PS. Is it possible to check that these ioctls are correct?
