If the drive has smart you could ask the drive's diagnostics
if there's any indication of trouble.
I am not familiar with SMART. It reports 4 pending sectors and nothing else wrong. I have run a "badblocks -nvs /dev/sdb3", it did not find any error... And after this, SMART still reports 4 pending sectors.
Any clue about how investigating further ?
