If you are using SATA drives behind a MegaRAID controller, you might need to combine flags: smartctl -a -d sat+megaraid,4 /dev/sda Use code with caution. Copied to clipboard 3. Summary of Key Flags smartctl megaraid,N ( how to find the right value for N ? ) Copied to clipboard 3

This message appears because smartctl (part of the smartmontools package) expects to communicate directly with a physical disk.
