I'm using Speedfan with this new hard drive and the option to use SMART to test the hard drive is unavailable. When I go to that section of Speed Fan and hit the selection tab it's blank. I'm wondering if this is normal and if there is any other software that does a similar scan that Speedfan does?
I'm aware of the Windows check disk function, but that doesn't seem to test the same things as SMART and when I run it overnight my computer reboots before I get to see the final results of the scan. I'm also using Win7. The hard drive is the only thing on my new system that hasn't been benchmarked.
