As others wrote, use the smartctl program from smartmontools. I had some "strange" problems with a samsung drive, I bought recently. I just run 'long' smartctl tests on the drive and it would fail them. I sent the drive back with the output of 'smartctl -a /dev/whatever' and got a replacement from the shop.
