Hi there, thanks for replying. I’m afraid it’s not possible to hook up to a Win machine for the software you suggested, but I can provide the SMART data from the drive if that’s of any help to you. Any attempt to self-test fails immediately. I purchased this drive in April 2013 and I’ve managed to make a full backup, so any further testing won’t result in data loss.
