If your drive is SMART compatible (and judging from their hugenesses, they probably will be), then you could try running SMART diagnostics (say, from http://www.kmint21.com/smart/ ). Of course, SMART only detects a proportion of hard drive problems (albeit quite a high proportion - about 70% I think) so if you're really worried, then you could always buy new hard drives and
give your old ones to me ;)
Please note: A hard drive problem may take time to exhibit itself in the event viewer; it
can take hours or a few days.
