-This tutorial is a collection of syntax and tips for using smart tools on Debian. The following command runs a short test. Change the verb after the ''-t'' flag to ''long'' in order to run a long test. You can optionally add the ''-C'' flag to run the test in the foreground. 
-   
-  smartctl -t short /dev/disk 
-  smartctl -t short -C /dev/disk 
- 
-To check a drive for what it supports or does not, use the ''-i'' flag for information about the drive. 
- 
-  sudo smartctl -i /dev/disk 
-   
-If time is an issue, use the ''-c'' flag to check how long the test will take. 
- 
-  sudo smartctl -c /dev/disk 
-   
-To see the results of a test you ran in background mode, use the ''-a'' flag to see all the historical records on the drive in question, including the test results. 
- 
-  sudo smartctl -a /dev/sdc 
-   
-To only look at the test results, use the following syntax: 
- 
-  smartctl -l selftest /dev/disk
