Hello, i have a special question please.

I Use a 11TB HDDbay (Archiv) on my S905X Box. On PC ist possible over USB and eSATA read the SMART from the HDD´s fexp. CrystalDiskInfo Tool. But 99,9% of the time the Bay hangs on the Box.
So i wont easy check time to time the SMART values, without the box in other rooms to PC extra to connect.

Can you please inculde a SMART Check at CoreElec or is there any Addon for Kodi please? <3

This will be a real nice and useful function! To keep an eye on the HDD health!!

CE has entware, I’m sure that there are disk monitoring utilities in there.
Look at smartmontools, that’s just from a 2 second google search.

I am not familiar with this specific addon, but as some others my guess it is a set of tools to use in a terminal window.
That means that you won’t see anything on the Kodi interface. You need to SSH into the box and execute the commands.
