How good is Speccy's SMART detection?

I was looking through Speccy today and went to the hard drive section of the program. I was in shock that my hard drive SMART status was labeled as bad so I went and downloaded smartmontools to see if my hard drive was really in deep trouble. I ran a SMART scan there and my hard drive passed with no problems. So my question is, which program should I trust more regarding my SMART status? Is it possible that one program is giving me inaccurate information?

This looks like a Speccy bug it's suppose to show the S.M.A.R.T data entries but they're missing for some reason.

Since you've checked your hard drive with HD Tune and smartmontools I think there's nothing to worry about.
