Look at the on-disk SMART statistics and error log ("smartctl -a
/dev/hdX"; it's part of the smartmontools package). If it reports
relocated sectors and such, then you've got your answer.
You can also ask the drive firmware to do a full disk check:
smartctl -t long /dev/hdX; sleep 1h; smartctl -a /dev/hdX > log
