TechTool Pro 7.0.3 Build 988 was released today to fix SMART Check to display correctly with zero threshold value and to address a problem with the eDrive Restart button for Thunderbolt hard drives with an eDrive volume.

Other changes include: updated Cache dial to support up to 32MB, updated eDrive to avoid copying unnecessary files and folders, and updated Bonjour service names for the Local Network tool.
The new software includes refreshed translations for French, German, Italian, Japanese, and Chinese (Simplified) localization, as well as “many additional machine and location identification strings.”
