OK, Download SpeedFan (http://www.almico.com/speedfan432.exe). Install
the program. Now run the program (just wait while SpeedFan reads the
computers bus, etc.). When SpeedFan is done initializing, gon the the
"S.M.A.R.T" tab. Now, from the drop down menu, choose your hard drive.
The utility will scan the hard drive and will list the model and
firmware. Now click the "Perform an in-depth online analysis of this
hard disk" button. It will open your browser and take you to a page.
Scroll down to the middle of the page where there is a chart. As long
as every attribute says "Normal" or better "Very good", you HD is OK.
Right below the chart, it will summarize the hard disk's health. If it
says something like "All of the attributes of your hard disk have
normal values. This is good.", then the hard drive's health should be
OK.

Hope this helps
