How do you scan an external HD?

Hey folks,
I have an external WD HD that I think might be on the fritz, so I wanted to run a low level scan of it.

What utilities should I be looking for to do this? I mean the stuff that comes with internal HDs won't read from USB, so what else is there?

Thanks,
-Eric
 
Hi, If you can read it from WINDOZ you should be able to run most diagnostics and maintenance programs on it. From REAL DOS you wont have a driver for it. DOS under Windoz will have the drivers. Good Luck, Jim

Wow you guys responded to both of my threads in order...lol
