Try running HD Tune(freeware).

Thanks for this, nice little tool ..:-)) I'm currently using speedfan
to have smart infos, but doesn't have the benchmark & scan functions.

Harddisk1 is the slave or second drive. The master drive is Harddisk0.

In Windows Explorer Harddisk1 is labelled D


No, D is a DVD, here a summary from HDtune on my 2 disks:

Select the Health tab and then double click the two page icon ( copy
to Clipboard ) and copy into a further message. Also do a full surface
scan with HD Tune.


Once again I'm not really concerned by the errors themself, I'm just
trying to find a way (possibly not empirical ..) to associate the disk
name I've on the event logger (es. \Device\Harddisk1\D) to a physical
disk.

Thanks & Ciaoooooooo,
Luciano


Open my computer right click the HDD, select properties.
On the HDD properties click on Hardware Tab then click Properties, there
click On Policies what are the settings there?.
