What tools can be used to monitor the health and performance of an 8TB HDD?

I’m looking to monitor the health and performance of my 8TB HDD to troubleshoot some speed issues. Can you recommend any reliable tools for checking drive health, bad sectors, or performance metrics? I’d also appreciate any tips on interpreting the results or resolving common issues. Thanks in advance!
