nvme-cli, alternative Linux à CrystalDiskInfo

Mis à jour le

Notre avis

nvme-cli is a capable tool for reading SMART data and health status on NVMe drives, making it a solid replacement for CrystalDiskInfo if you only use NVMe SSDs and are comfortable with the command line. It reports temperature, power-on hours, and overall health. However, it does not support SATA or other non-NVMe drives, so users with mixed drive types will need additional tools. It lacks GUI and automatic notifications. Best suited for experienced Linux users focused on NVMe hardware.

Ce qui fonctionne pareil

  • Reads SMART attributes from NVMe SSDs
  • Reports drive health status (using SMART data)
  • Displays temperature and power-on hours
  • Supports multiple NVMe drives simultaneously
  • Provides low-level controller information

Ce qui change

  • nvme-cli is command-line only, no GUI
  • Only works with NVMe drives, not SATA or other interfaces
  • No built-in alerting or background monitoring
  • Does not show health as 'Good/Caution/Bad' with color codes
  • No automatic startup or system tray presence

Ouvrir vos fichiers CrystalDiskInfo

CrystalDiskInfo saves drive data in its own format (e.g., .cdi files), which nvme-cli cannot read or import. nvme-cli does not export data to any structured file format by default; output is plain text. Users must manually log or redirect CLI output to a file. There is no direct compatibility between the two tools' data files.

Passer de CrystalDiskInfo à nvme-cli, étape par étape

  1. Install nvme-cli using your distro's package manager (e.g., sudo apt install nvme-cli)
  2. Run 'nvme list' to see all NVMe drives
  3. Use 'nvme smart-log /dev/nvme0n1' to check SMART data for a drive
  4. Check temperature and power-on hours in the smart-log output
  5. Set up a cron job or script if you want periodic monitoring

Questions fréquentes

Can nvme-cli monitor my SATA SSD like CrystalDiskInfo does?

No, nvme-cli only works with NVMe drives. For SATA SSDs, use smartmontools with 'smartctl'.

Is there a GUI alternative that does what CrystalDiskInfo does on Linux?

Yes, tools like GSmartControl provide a GUI for SMART data and support both NVMe and SATA drives.

How do I get alerts if my NVMe drive fails?

nvme-cli doesn't do alerts. Use smartmontools with email scripts or systemd services to monitor and notify.
