The article considers an approach to solving the problem of monitoring and classifying the states of hard disks, which is solved on a regular basis, within the framework of the concept of non-destructive testing. It is proposed to solve this problem by developing a classification model using machine learning algorithms, in particular, using recurrent neural networks with Simple RNN, LSTM and GRU architectures. To develop a classification model, a data set based on the values of SMART sensors installed on hard disks it used. It represents a group of multidimensional time series. At the same time, the structure of the classification model contains two layers of a neural network with one of the recurrent architectures, as well as a Dropout layer and a Dense layer. The results of experimental studies confirming the advantages of LSTM and GRU architectures as part of hard disk state classification models are presented.
