I need a Linux live USB that lets me see the S.M.A.R.T. status of a NVME drive, without having to install the operating system or software on it. Which distribution(s) would allow me to do this?
Thanks in advance.
 


1. Make a live USB with your favorite distro that can use persistence.
2. Boot the USB with an internet connection.
3. Install smartmontools
4. Add this new USB to your bag of troubleshooting tools.

Hiren's BootCD and Ultimate Boot CD have tools which can query S.M.A.R.T.
