[Sussex] hard disk analysis tools

[David Morris]

Hey all,

I have a disk I suspect is failing (making very bad noises), and I know
I can reboot it and look at the SMART status for it (but I don't want to
risk it not coming backup as its my FW)

Are there any tools I can run against it to access the SMART status for
it or any other tools to access its status without having to reboot and
risk it not coming backup again.

PS sorry if you get this twice I sent it from the wrong account before hand
