software to verify hard disks

Hi there.

I run a quite big ftp server on a box with four ide disks (lvm2 configuration) but I suspect one of the disks to fail. However, I am not sure about it.

Where should I check first ?

Any good programs to verify the hard disks?

Thanks a lot in advance for your support.

Best regards.
