System Monitor Utility (.Net 2.0)

Coding4Fun: System Monitor

"... Software exists to monitor my internal hard drives, but not the external ones. Drives on remote machines need to be monitored and alert me when their drives show signs of failure.

I would like other things monitored, too. System availability, hard drive space, and so on, need to be watched -- especially on critical systems. Utilities of all kinds exist to monitor these things, but maintenance and configuration of disparate utilities can be a hassle.
The solution
The solution is simple: A utility that can host 'monitors' and provide a means to communicate to the user in a configurable, extensible way. Any number of 'notifiers' can be associated with a 'monitor' and new 'notifiers' can be written to allow any kind of communication. ..."

There are some items in the article that I might be able to use... Though it was wirtten with .Net 2.0 so I might wait for 2.0 to RTM before taking too much time with this.
