Drive Fitness Test

The Drive Fitness Test (DFT) quickly and reliably tests SCSI, IDE and SATA drives. The DFT analyze function performs read tests without overwriting customer data. (Note: other DFT restoration utilities may overwrite data.)

This may come in handy for me. There are plenty of Mac portables out there with Hitachi Travelstar drives in them. They are actually the original drives from Apple that these portables shipped with. Thanks for the suggestion!:)

You're welcome. Works on all hard drives, not just Hitachi.
