+
+FreeBSD has imported a native Self-Monitoring, Analysis, and Reporting Technology (S.M.A.R.T.) utility, man:smart[8], into the base system, providing lightweight, built-in disk health monitoring capabilities without requiring third-party packages.
+It was inspired by the man:diskctl[8] framework proposed at AsiaBSDCon 2016 to create a permissively-licensed S.M.A.R.T. utility addressing licensing and functionality gaps in existing tools.
+
+The utility provides a unified interface for retrieving S.M.A.R.T. data across multiple storage protocols, including ATA, NVMe, and SCSI.
+It focuses on ease of integration with monitoring tools, providing multiple output formats (tab-delimited fields, JSON, XML) via man:libxo[3] and allowing users to query specific health attributes.
