Well, you can always use the diagnostic utilities most harddrive vendors offer. Seagate for example offers two toolsets on bootable CDs which can do a complete and thorough check of Seagate harddrives. I am convinced most other major vendors like IBM or Maxtor offer similar utilities. Check out your vendors website ;-) > Thanks for any pointers. You're welcome. cheers, Tobias
