What is the command to check a ssd’s smart data? it seems to have changed as it only tells me the command “smartctl -a /dev/nvme1n1p1” isn’t working. smartctl: command not found

It’s working same way as on every other Debian system. There is nothing DietPi specific on this.

To install smartctl on Debian, update your package list and install the smartmontools package using sudo apt update && sudo apt install smartmontools

Nope it’s not preinstalled as this would work against the Diet concept :sweat_smile:
