VERIFY command does it right. If it doesm then i shoudl put it into
a cron job and do it on weekly basis. Also, it would halpfull it i could
get access to number of left reserved sector for remapping. Any idea
about these two for 3ware controllers? Also, someone should mention,
that while using raid MUST do verifies often.

The 3dm2 software (sysutils/3dm port) can dump the SMART data from
individual disks. It can also schedule verify and self-test tasks and
identify individual drives by blinking the activity light for the
drive. _______________________________________________

Problems are:
1) how to parse this dump of data?
2) No scheduling is available on 7000,8000 on 4 port models
