Test Multiple Hard Drives for Bad Sectors

[Dahak]

So I have somehow collected a mass of hard drives and while most I know are good but there are some I cannot remember if they are good or not.

Now I would like to know if there is a program, bootable, windows, linux that will allow me to test multiple hard drives at one time.

I seen this over at the freenas forums but wondering if there is another way.

the goal is to test multiple drives at once to verify if there is any bad sectors on the drive.

I could use the MFG diags but can only do 1 drive at a time.

Unraid will do it. You can download the demo and install it on a flash drive, with unraid and the preclear script you can preclear up to 6 drives at a time in the linux console. I've personally done 4 at a time no problem. With screen you can probably do even more than 6.
