How do I Verify a MacBook S.M.A.R.T. Status? (5 Steps)

Double-click on your 'Macintosh HD' drive from your desktop and then click on the 'Applications' folder.
Click on the 'Utilities' folder and then double-click on the 'Disk Utility' application. The Disk Utility dialog box will then appear on your screen.
Click on the drive that you want to check the S.M.A.R.T. status for from the right side of the dialog box.
Locate the S.M.A.R.T. Status field located on the bottom of the dialog box. If the status reads 'Verified,' your hardware is safe, but if the status reads 'About to Fail,' you should take action by backing up your hard drive immediately.
Close out of the Disk Utility application after checking your S.M.A.R.T. status or perform any other changes, such as repairing the disk.
