smartctl:tldr:1b981

This command is used to retrieve detailed information about a hard drive or solid-state drive (SSD) using the "smartctl" command-line utility. Here's a breakdown of the different components:

• "sudo": Stands for "Super User Do" and is used to execute the following command with administrative privileges. It may prompt for the user's password before executing the command.
• "smartctl": This is the command-line utility used to monitor and analyze SMART (Self-Monitoring, Analysis, and Reporting Technology) data of storage devices such as hard drives and SSDs.
• "--all": This option is used to display all available SMART attributes and their respective values for the specified device.
• "${-dev-sdX}": This is a placeholder indicating that you need to replace it with the specific device identifier. The format "sdX" refers to a specific storage device, where "X" is a letter representing the device (e.g., "sda" for the first hard drive, "sdb" for the second, etc.). Make sure to replace "${-dev-sdX}" with the appropriate device identifier without the "${}".

Overall, this command will allow you to view comprehensive SMART data for the specified storage device. Note that administrative privileges are required to access this information.
