+
+Normally, the C<smart> plugin will ignore disks that are reported to be asleep.
+This option disables the sleep mode check and allows the plugin to collect data
+from these disks anyway. This is useful in cases where libatasmart mistakenly
+reports disks as asleep because it has not been updated to incorporate support
+for newer idle states in the ATA spec.

+=item B<UseSerial> B<true>|B<false>
+
+A disk's kernel name (e.g., sda) can change from one boot to the next. If this
+option is enabled, the C<smart> plugin will use the disk's serial number (e.g.,
+HGST_HUH728080ALE600_2EJ8VH8X) instead of the kernel name as the key for
+storing data. This ensures that the data for a given disk will be kept together
+even if the kernel name changes.
