Do you have a habit of checking your disk health? I check mine every month to prevent disk corruption and data loss.

If you are interested in smartctl, here is a demo: https://x-cmd.com/1min/smartctl

Smartmontools on Debian sets up a continuous monitoring daemon so you can get an email if any monitored disk has errors.

/etc/default/smartmontools

#enable_smart="/dev/hda /dev/hdb"

Thank you for sharing, I like this feature.
