Each drive manufacturer/model reports slightly different SMART attributes. All report things like temperature and operational hours, but after that it varies. It gets even more fun with SSDs, as attributes like wear indicators are different for each manufacturer and sometimes replace existing attributes that are not longer used.

Is this normal?

We licensed the artwork from somewhere, but it does have a resemblance to the ESET robot.

By the way, that Robot was got from ESET?
