it’s a systemd unit on my side, so i’ve got logging and potential to implement reporting if i desired, but frankly it’s not worth the effort, i just check to see if the drives have roughly the same data on them every so often, because rsync is handling the rest for me, as well as systemd.
I should probably set up proper smart reporting, but i’m lazy and don’t want to setup and email server lol.

I used to send email alerts but this just uses Pushover which is just an API call. Super easy.
i’ve considered setting it up, but i don’t think smartd supports pushover so meh.
