Hi All,
Just out of curiosity, what Linux tools do you guys use for checking errors on a HDD. I can't use my Windows 7 one, due a to bug that consumes all the available ram and thank you Microsoft for not addressing this issue.
Anyway, the other day I tried scanning one of my disks for errors and i noticed all the available ram being sucked out by the scan disk process. In a matter of 5 seconds, all my 8 gigs of available ram, went down to 500MB. Likely I was able to kill the process in time before the system went hay wire.
Anyway, what tools do you guys use.
Thank you very much
