The PassMark SysInfo DLL SDK provides 3rd party developers with the components needed to integrate the SysInfo DLL library into their applications. The SysInfo DLL library exports an interface for retrieving system information, which includes the following:
The SysInfo DLL also includes a SMART component (formerly released as SmartDisk DLL SDK), which exports an interface for retrieving SMART information from SMART-enabled hard disks.
The SMART component of the SysInfo DLL (formerly SmartDisk DLL) is an independent subset of the SysInfo set of APIs for collecting SMART attributes for SMART-enabled drives. Exported functions include the following:
To see a sample of what is possible using the SDK, see the free utility PassMark's DiskCheckup which is built using SysInfo DLL to report SMART attributes of your drives and PassMark's RAMMon which reports RAM details.
The API has been designed and tested to run on the following operating systems:
Non-Windows operating systems are not supported. The example source code and the DLL were built using Microsoft Visual Studio, but any IDE that supports DLL linking should be compatible.

The SysInfo DLL SDK utilises statistical analysis to predict possible failure dates of hard disk drives. Because there are no 'certainties' in statistical analysis, PassMark® Software Pty Ltd disclaims all liability for any and all costs incurred by either:
1) The hard disk drive failing before the predicted failure date estimated
by the application, or
2) The hard disk drive continuing to function beyond the predicted failure
date estimated by the application.
In either situation, PassMark® disclaims liability for any losses due to loss or damage to data. PassMark® further disclaims any liability for costs incurred in anticipation of a disk drive failure that does not eventuate (e.g. replacement hard disk drives, transfer time, downtime, etc).
This disclaimer is in addition to the Disclaimer of Warranty and Limitation of Liability mentioned elsewhere in the EULA and on this website.
