I recently found a tool named "Scrutiny" that presents a nice dashboard
of all your disk devices and their SMART data including crucial points
like temperature.

Pros:

Open source
Nice web UI
Uses smartmontools to gather the data, not reinventing the wheel
Agents that can be called from cron jobs for many OSes including FreeBSD
Alerting via a variety of communication channels

Cons:

Central hub best run on Linux plus docker compose
No authentication whatsoever, so strictly internal use
No grouping or any organisation of systems so does not scale beyond tens of 
servers

I found a couple of problematic HDDs and SSDs right after deploying it
which regular SMART tests overlooked.

Look for the Hub/Spoke deployment if you are willing to use e.g.
a Linux VM to run the tool, then point your FreeBSD systems at that.

It probably can be deployed strictly on FreeBSD, too, using the manual
installation instructions.

HTH, kind regards,
Patrick
