Do you know about SMART? Install sys-apps/smartmontools if you
don't already have it, and read the manpage for smartctl.
I add smartd to my default runlevel so the hard drives will test
themselves once every month and log the test results in syslog.
Hm. I just noticed that smartd isn't actually running, so I need
to do some debugging now. But that's the idea, anyway.
