Glad things are up and running again. Micromat, the vendor of TechTool Pro, has a new product on the market called Checkmate. It runs in background at various times of the day and performs a variety of tests on your drives including S.M.A.R.T., memory, I/O, Power On Self Test, Surface Scans, Partition Maps, Volume structures, and File Structures on all attached volumes. It does not do any repairs but it will alert you to potential or actual drive failures.

DISCLAIMER: I have no pecuniary relationship with Micromat other that that of a customer for their products.
