早期的HD Tune(4.0之前)也無法抓到USB HD的SMART資訊,
但現在新版的HD Tune跟Crystal DiskInfo都可以偵測到了~
當然,組成RAID的HD還是不行.....
原本以為RAID上的SMART讀不到是先天上技術限制,沒想到還是可以做到嘛~
不過古早的IDE RAID似乎多半都不支援

Why no disk information detected for my RAID array?
Most RAID controllers do not provide access to the hard disks inside the arrays. The controller completely hides all physical disk information - that's why the real disk type and S.M.A.R.T. information (including temperature and health) are not displayed for hardware RAID arrays, regardless of the type (0, 1, etc...) of the array.
Some special RAID controllers, which are listed in the RAID controllers section on the hard disk controllers page (for example 3ware / AMCC / Areca / HighPoint / LSI / Dell / NVIDIA controllers) have a special function which allows to get more information compared to other RAID controllers. But other controllers (ITE, Promise, Adaptec, Intel, JMicron, Silicon Image, etc...) do not have this feature, that's why no information is displayed.
We do our best to examine other RAID controllers and support them, if possible - but most controllers (especially cheaper and integrated ones) do not allow this and can't be supported.
A possible solution is to use a completely OS controlled software RAID array. This way the disks provide full information without problems. It is officially possible by using "Server" editions of Windows.
Anyway, the disk testing functions (File -> Surface test and Random seek test) can be used on all storage volumes, including on such RAID arrays.
