CrystalDiskInfo alternative for Linux
This app is a frontend for smartctl which is part of the smartmontools package.
The icon is a modified version of the KDE Partition Manager logo which is available under GPL-3.0+.
Ubuntu and based distros (Mint, Pop!_OS, etc.)
sudo apt install build-essential cmake git libgl1-mesa-dev libxkbcommon-dev qt6-base-dev qt6-wayland smartmontools
Fedora and derivatives (Nobara Project, etc.)
sudo dnf install cmake git mesa-libGL-devel libxkbcommon-devel qt6-qtbase-devel qt6-qtwayland-devel smartmontools
First you will need to clone the repository and cd inside
git clone https://github.com/edisionnano/QDiskInfo.git && cd QDiskInfo
Then you must create a build directory and cd inside
mkdir build && cd build
After that use CMake to setup the project, Qt version can also be set to 5 (for example for Ubuntu)
cmake .. -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE:STRING=MinSizeRel -DQT_VERSION_MAJOR=6
And finally compile the project with all the threads
make -j$(nproc)
This will create a QDiskInfo
binary on the build directory but you can also install it using
sudo make install
The process is similar to the one above with a few changes:
First you must download the edition of CrystalDiskInfo you want (Aoi for example) in ZIP format from here, from this archive you shall copy the light and dark backgrounds as well as the good, caution, bad, unknown icons to dist/theme with the same name as the templates there.
Once you do that compile like above but when running CMake do this instead:
cmake .. -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE:STRING=MinSizeRel -DQT_VERSION_MAJOR=6 -DINCLUDE_OPTIONAL_RESOURCES=ON -DCHARACTER_IS_RIGHT=ON
Regarding the -DCHARACTER_IS_RIGHT
set it to ON for themes where the character is right (like Aoi) or OFF for most other themes.
