Reg. Hard Disk Sentinel, I can not comment about its ability to interpret SMART data as I have never used it. I can say however that software differs widely in accuracy and correctness of this interpretation, and even industry-standard software such as Aida64 doesn't handle SMART well. I suggest tools that in my experience get this right more often than others, which is HDDGuardian and gsmartcontrol. For Mac OS X, there is DriveDX that does exceptionally good job.
