Sorry if this is a bit off topic, but having monitored SMART status on ide and scsi drives for many months now on ~100 hosts and not catching much, has anyone had a great deal of success in trapping/diagnosing problems with these checks?

Hi all, 
I just a have a question that hopefully somebody knows the answer to. 
I'm trying to monitor SMART on unix box using the check_smart.pl script.  I have got it to work but it always reports "No Output!".  The way I have set it up to work is like the following:
In my services.cfg file I have it setup like this: 
define service { 
host_name                      Sentry 
service_description            S.M.A.R.T - Status 
register                       1 
max_check_attempts             1 
normal_check_interval          3 
retry_check_interval           1 
check_period                   24x7 
notification_interval          0 
notification_period            24x7 
notification_options           w,u,c,r 
contact_groups                 ntadmins 
check_command                  "/usr/local/nagios/etc/scheck.sh SMART" 
} 
and in the scheck.sh file: 
if [ $1 = 'SMART' ] ; then 
/usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_smart.pl -t -d /dev/hda 
fi 
This works fine but it show up as NO OUTPUT within nagios.  I want to be able to see the results of this command with Nagios.  Does anyone know how to do this?
Thanks in advance..... 
Neil
