Drive Condition
« on: March 30, 2005, 02:30:00 AM »

Is there any software that I can run to check the condition of the harddrive in my box? I think there maybe some damaged areas so I wanna check it out.

Why do you think that? Is it doing something unusual?

It just makes some strange noises sometimes and I have had trouble when ftping stuff lately. It regularly stops sending or slows right down. So I just want a program similar to the drive checking ones you can run on PC, if there is one. I only have a laptop so I cant put it in a comp to check it out.

If you are hearing noises coming from the hdd then I think your hdd will probably go out soon how old is it and is it the stock hdd?
