Abstract: A data health monitoring system and method are provided which may be configured to monitor different indicators or parameters of a computing device which may affect the health of the computing device, such as which may be used in looking for early warning signs that could indicate future data loss or corruption. The system may periodically query certain data health indicators, such as S.M.A.R.T. status, disk temperature, read and write errors, etc. The system may also monitor data as it is being accessed keeping track of other indicators such as: files that are modified, when the last backed up was, protection status of the file, type of changes made to the file, which application is making changes, etc. Preferably, the combined status of each data health indicator may be rolled up into a simple message and shown to the user via notifications, reports, logs or a user interface.
