For a complete test , do smartctl -t long /device .. After the time 
mentioned by smartclt , use smartclt -a /device to see the results...
The results are a bit cryptic , but keep an eye on the columns marked 
"pre-failure" , since those are the ones that you should really worry 
about..
Also , if the disk shows too many failure reports , it's probably in 
need of replacement...
