Yes, I'm aware of that, but our security people get a serious case of hives over SNMP. If there was some other way to do it, it would be a lot easier.

If you are using Windows software RAID, you could monitor the event log to see if a disk fails. Unfortunately, I don’t know what messages might be relevant.
If you are using hardware RAID from HP or Dell (probably others as well), you can use the vendor-supplied agents to monitor the system via SNMP using devmon.

Can Hobbit detect when a RAID disk fails on a Windows box? If so, how does it show up?
