S.M.A.R.T. physical disk info in RAID array on H730P

I have a RAID5 virtual disk of SSD drives on a H730P in a Poweredge R730xd.  I would like to pull the SMART information for the SSD disks so I can monitor the write endurance of the drives.  I am running Windows Server 2012 R2.

I have found numerous postings about this, but no definitive answer on if it is possible.  I have tried a number of command line utilities:

dell perccli (v 1.11.03)
smartmontools smartctl.exe (v 6.4)
dell omreport (v 8.2.0)
dell omconfig (v 8.2.0)

But nothing can get to the SMART information of the disks.

It looks like some people have had luck on linux system using the linux version of the smartctl command.  It includes a "megaraid" device type but that is not a feature of the windows version of smartctl.

At this point it seems the only way I can get the info is to pull a drive and connect it to another computer to read the information.

Has anyone been able to pull this information without having to do that?
