Hi all,
We have some hard drives on our server and one of them seem to have
problem. I wonder how can I check and fix the error from a specific hard
drive?
Thanks a lot
Hung

Try using smartctl (sys-apps/smartmontools), it can usually show at
once that there's something wrong with the drive (-H flag). And if it
doesn't, you can use it to perform SMART-tests (-t flag) to make sure
that drive is ok.

Hi Mike,
Thanks a lot for your suggestion. I use smartctl to check hard drives
now and it is very handy.
