I am using Ubuntu Mate 16.04. I bought an nvme ssd (Intel 600p) and am no longer able to view SMART data through gnome-disk-utility.
I was able to see SMART using my old SATA ssd through this dropdown menu:
With the NVME ssd, the menu option doesn't exist. I can still view SMART data for the NVME ssd using
sudo smartctl --all /dev/nvme
Why can't I also view it in gnome-disk-utility?
This is a known issue in the underlying udisks program used by gnome-disks. There already exist a issue on the gitlab page https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-disk-utility/issues/50 and upstream on the udisks issue tracker https://github.com/storaged-project/udisks/issues/386
This worked for me on Ubuntu 16.04 to get more or less the same data
sudo nvme list
sudo nvme smart-log /dev/nvme0
First, make sure that you have the latest firmware installed in the Intel 600P. Go to these web sites for the downloads...
https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/support/memory-and-storage/000017245.html
https://downloadcenter.intel.com/product/94922/Intel-SSD-600p-Series
In the Disks utility, make sure that you select the SSD in the left pane, then go to the "hamburger" icon and select SMART Data & Tests. That should get you where you want to go.
You might install gsmartcontrol and see if that sees the SSD SMART.
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install gsmartcontrol
