Shibathedog Posted December 25, 2006 Share Posted December 25, 2006 I suspect one or more of my HDDs is failing, is CHKDISK a good enough tool to see if im right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Renzor Posted December 25, 2006 Share Posted December 25, 2006 is it an external one? or internal how many do you have Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ken_cinder Posted December 25, 2006 Share Posted December 25, 2006 SMART utilities are a good bet. CHKDSK won't tell you anything beyond dead clusters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shibathedog Posted December 26, 2006 Author Share Posted December 26, 2006 would speedfan be sufficient? i know it has SMART features but i havent really used them besides hitting go and saying hmm that cool and closing it and they are internal i think only 1 of the 3 is actually failing. But im not sure. Either way im getting a new SATA HDD soon, but i shouldnt bother keeping these drives if they are failing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
