SATA
Power Management
What is SATA Link Power Management (as seen in powertop hints)?
hddtemp
hddtemp seems to handle SATA devices just fine:

SMART
Are my disks failing?
The one-line executive summary is available for supported disks via the -Hc option. grep for "^SMART overall" and verify PASSED as opposed to FAILING. If you're already FAILED, the command will generally fail in and of itself.
Details, for those interested
Generally, '-d ata' is a sufficient descriptor of a device for smartd to handle it. Determine SMART capability with smartctl -i:
