diagnostic tools for external hard drive

[krisoto]

is there one that's build to test the integrety of the drive externally connected as firewire under winxp without going thru partition or formating?

Go to the manufactures web site and look under support. If it's a good company they should have a diagnostic program you can download. If you still can't find anything try Google. Hope this helps. Please keep us posted.
