Hello dear readers, today I would like to show you how to test hDD and will help us, and to be more precise broken.
I will say one thing, if you are looking for a program from under Windows, then you are wasting your time! Testing program hard driveov can only test, but not fix your hard drive from bad sectors. And this program is able to both test and fix your hard disk.
I often encounter such a problem when people start to lose information on the hard disk, the computer starts to slow down, hang, and then you have to test the equipment. Of course, the first thing you need to, but if it is in order, then practically the rest of the percentage falls on the hard disk.
So, consider a program that will help you. I will consider HDAT2 version 4.53, it has rescued me many times and not only me, I will not advise you on this bad.
First, download the program and write to a USB flash drive or disk, how to do this, you can see in the articles:
Now download the free image programs for testing and repairing hard drives:
The program for testing the hard disk
In general, if recorded, run ... I Hiren’s Boot CD 15.1 for me it looked like this:
Now select Check and Repair bad sectors.
The program will start the test, progress will be visible in the form of percentages.
If your strip is completely blue, then this is good; if not, then at best, the damage will be software and program for testing hard drives fix everything successfully. If not, you will have to buy a new hard drive.
I had a hard drive without errors and the program for testing hard drives produced the following result:
Yellow cells are warning signs of a sector failure. hard drive there are 0 of them.
The red cells that the sector is faulty are also 0.
And accordingly green cells, that sectors are fixed 0, since there were no broken ones.
So it should be good tough disk.
That's all, I will say one thing: best program for testing hard drives everyone has their own, but I recommended to use this, because Often she rescued me, even helped when.
Hello! Sometimes the slow operation of the computer, and its hangup, is associated with errors on the hard drive (HDD). Today, we will step by step check our hard disk for such errors and do our best to correct them. I will use for this purpose as standard means. operating systemso and third party program called Victoria.
We check the disk for errors using standard Windows tools.
Enter the computer and select the disk you want to check. Then right-click on this disk and select "Properties",
Here we select the tab "Service" and click "Check",
Upon completion, the following window will pop up:
If you have a seven, then after clicking "Run check" on system diskwindow will come out
Click "Check Disk Schedule". After that, you will need to restart your computer, and it will automatically scan the hard drive for errors. At this point, nothing needs to be crammed, upon completion the computer starts up and you will see a familiar desktop. But, once again, this is for those who have Windows 7 installed.
Check the disk for errors using the program Victoria
Victoria is a very useful and functional utility, thanks to which you can check hard drives Serial ATA and IDE for errors. The program is one of the best of its kind, so we will use it to assess the real technical hard conditions disk.
First you need to download the image of Victoria from the developer site http://www.ihdd.ru/victoria. Download and unzip this archive and see the image,
Now you need to burn this image to disk. If you do not know how, you can read the article. After we boot from this disk and select the boot mode (the first option),
When the program interface has started, press the F2 function key, so that the program automatically finds the hard disk. If this does not happen, then you need to manually force to find the disk. Press the P key on the keyboard. If your computer has hard drives installed with a SATA interface, then in the Select Port menu select Ext. PCI ATA / SATA. To move up or down, you must respectively select a key on the keyboard up or down, the choice is the "Enter" key.
After we select the disk that needs to be checked. To do this, just specify the number and press "Enter"

Personally, I have the number 1. To check the surface of our disk, you must press the F4 key. The HDD scan menu window will open, where we will specify the disk scan options. The program will automatically offer to scan from the very beginning (0) to the end (29360128). Here we do not touch anything. We'll keep the linear reading, because thanks to it the diagnostics of the disk will be realized as accurately and quickly as possible. BB = Advanced REMAP, I recommend to choose, because the test in this mode will be of high quality and errors will be automatically corrected without loss of data. Click "Enter,"
At this stage, the hard disk check begins with the correction of "bad" areas. It’s not exactly how long this process will take. It can last from 10 minutes to tens of hours, depending on the size of the hard drive and speed.
When it's over, pull the disc out of the DVD-ROM and reboot the system.
The above methods hard checks disc for errors and their corrections are the most effective, so use them and recommend to friends.
If you delete any important files, then do not despair because they can. Good luck!
Quite often, a computer or laptop is associated with errors and malfunctions in the hard drive. In this article we will figure out how to check the health of a hard disk using windows tools and specially designed for this program.
Check for errors by standard means
This method is equally effective for Windows Xp, Vista, 7, 8 and 10. It is necessary:
If the notification “Windows cannot verify the drive currently in use” appears, you should click “Check Schedule”.
So, now we are doing a reboot, and when the system is booted, a test for working through the BIOS and correcting the carrier errors will be launched. Its duration can range from 2-3 minutes to an hour, depending on the characteristics of the hard drive and its capacity.
Check hard disk for errors via the command line
To start the scan, you must perform the following steps: go to "Start / All Programs / Accessories / Command Line". Click the right mouse button and click "Run as Administrator".
In the appeared window we execute the command “chkdsk partition_disk: check_parameters”. Note that this method Works exclusively with disks that have been formatted in FAT32 or NTFS.
An example of a command is “chkdsk C: / F / R”. Its essence is as follows:
- Section C will be checked for errors;
- Found problems will be automatically corrected (parameter F is responsible for this);
- Bad sectors will be checked and information restored (parameter R);
If you want to diagnose the drive used by the system at the moment, you will see a special notification. You will be prompted to perform the check at the next computer boot. To agree with this, press Y, for rejection - N. Following the results of the check, you will see information about the verified data, about the number of bad sectors and bugs found.
For a complete list of parameters, run chkdsk with a question mark as a parameter. But if you need the usual check for errors and sectors, then the above information will be enough for you.
It happens that the errors found during the scan is not always possible to immediately fix, it is likely that this is due to the program running at that time. In this situation, an offline scan of the drive will be required: it is disconnected from work, diagnostics are performed, and then it is connected back. To do this you need to enter in command line “Chkdsk C: / f / offlinescanandfix” (C: is a disk partition). If it is not possible to disable it, the check will be performed at the next reboot.
If necessary, after verification, you have the opportunity to examine the verification log. For this you need:
- Enter the Windows Logs / Applications;
- Right-click on Application / Search;
- Search for the word Chkdsk;
Software check
Of course, the above method is not always effective. Therefore, we consider a number of programs such as Victoria. They will allow you to conduct the most thorough analysis of the hard disk on a computer or laptop.
