I just had the harddrive fail on me and i had to do windows xp restore to get it running again.
I also had a number of formats in a short span of time due to a stupid monitor display problem thinking it was harddrive.
Anyways, I want to test the harddrive to see if it's okay. What is the best method in doing so?
*btw i am not too concerned with 'bad sector' per se but more concerned with overall speed of the reading and stability in accessing the data and running the computer.
Thanks in advance.
