I've got an older hard drive that I have recently re-formatted to ext4 and would like to use it as a spare of a spare backup.
Before I put any data on it, I was wondering what tools, or applications, that I can use to test its health and reliability.
I have run a fsck against it and smartctl tools indicates that the drive is healthy.
Are there any other utilities that I could run against this drive to give it a basic health pass? This is not mission critical. I am just looking for some additional day-to-day utilities to ease my mind. Thanks.
