Also I want to learn whether P2040 card supports smart features of SATA.

Yes, The smartmontools package contains two utility programs (smartctl and smartd) to control and monitor storage systems using the Self-Monitoring, Analysis and Reporting Technology System (SMART) built into most modern ATA/SATA, SCSI/SAS/TTRockStars and NVMe disks.

Hi,

you need to enable smart and then read smart status via ATA command.

CMD_SMART + ENABLE : 0xB0 + 0xD8

CMD_SMART + STATUS : 0xB0 + 0xDA
