S.M.A.R.T. should be able to do this. But last time I've checked it wasn't working with Linux and SCSI/SATA. Is this working now?


Yes, it is working now. The smartutils package returns all kinds of handy information from the drive and can force the drive to perform a low level disk check on request. It likely won't pass through a hardware raid controller however.

Well it's a WD 1600SD.
