Perform diagnostics and tests on WD and other brand hard disk drives.

If you're running into issues with your Western Digital mass storage device, it might be time to use a specialized utility to analyze it. With Western Digital Data Lifeguard Diagnostics, you've got a few options to scan for errors.

The program interface of Western Digital Data Lifeguard Diagnostics is a little old school, but after installation and execution of it, you've given a list of detected connected disk drives.

Upon right clicking the affected Western Digital hard drive, you can perform either a quick test or extended test, both of which may take some time depending on the physical size of the drive in question.

Western Digital Data Lifeguard Diagnostics also provides a couple of additional tools, mainly the erase function which will erase the data currently stored on the drive.

Finally the "View test results" function will display a list of issues detected. It doesn't appear that this diagnostics tool provides any fixes or repairs for affected drives, but at least you know where the issues lay if a scan is successful.

It's interesting to note the diagnostics tools also work on other hard drive vendors.
