hi all i am rather new to setting up any type of server or storage system
but i picked up a few hitachi deskstar 3tb drives and wanted to know what is the best tools to check the health before using it in a raid setup?
like checking for bad sectors and that kind of thing
i am running mostly mac os in my home but i have a pc as well so software for either os would be great
i have another quick question
do hdds also get firmware updates?
and if so is there one for my drive the hitachi 3tb deskstar 7200?
