Could be. Use the HD test program from the manufacturer, or use smartctl.
Ok, thanks. I don't think I've a HD test program from the manufacturer.
You can usually get it from their web page. For example, Seagate has a good one. I think it is a small ISO nowdays, previously it was a floppy image (dos bootable). Fujitsu... I had a hard time searching for it and I failed.
I'll try out smartctl.
It is basically the same thing, but without text feedback while it runs. - -- Cheers, Carlos E.
