EASIS Drive Check

EASIS Drive Check can perform tests on internal storage devices a.k.a. your PC’s hard disk, and external storage devices like USB sticks, flash drives, external hard drives, and so on. This application can perform two types of tests: a S.M.A.R.T. Test, which reads your hard disk’s SMART info, and a Sector Test, which checks for errors and bad sectors.

According to developer EASIS (NOT EaseUS, that’s a different company), the following Windows editions are supported: Windows 2000, Windows NT, Windows XP, Windows Vista, and Windows 7. Why aren’t Windows 8, 8.1, or 10 on the list? Because EASIS Drive Check hasn’t been updated in a very, very long time.

Launch EASIS Drive Check and its interface will bring up two big buttons, corresponding to the two types of tests that this application can do. Click on the SMART Test button, select a hard drive, and the hard drive’s SMART info will be displayed on the interface. Click on the Sector Test button, select a hard drive, and EASIS Drive Check will start looking for errors and bad sectors.

The Options menu features the option to send email notifications.

EASIS Drive Check is free software. But if you want a tool that can read your hard drive’s SMART info, there are better options out there (cough, Speccy, cough). And if you want to check your hard drive for errors, you can do that without any help from 3rd party software because the Windows operating system can do that on its own. So to sum it up, you might want to stay away from EASIS Drive Check, even if it’s free.

EASIS Drive Check can read your hard drive’s SMART info and present it on its interface. Furthermore, it can also test your hard drive for errors and bad sectors.
