Also, my first inclination is to use the manufacturer disk diagnostic tools to test a HDD. But what are the advantages of using the manufacturer's drive diagnostics tools over something like, say, Microsoft Scandisk? ...
Nothing really, use Scandisk and or CHKDSK /r (http://vlaurie.com/computers2/Articles/chkdsk.htm). The only big advantages the mfg's tools may have is in formatting, usually they can do it faster with more detailed options. Not many have enhanced scan/check features.
