I just had two drives go bad. Looks like faulty sectors. But I run chkDsk regularly. Unfortunately, it's a manual process. Also, you have to look at the report and read the # of bad sectors, rather than having a simple flag that pops up only WHEN there is a problem. (Set it and forget sort of thing)

Any tips for an automated process to check for problems?

    One tip perhaps --> A PowerShell script remotely querying for correlated values of event id's, keywords, etc. from the Event Viewer that runs at certain intervals on a scheduled that will send you an email when certain values exist may be helpful for a good starting point. – Vomit IT - Chunky Mess Style Aug 04 '16 at 16:57

    Search for "hd smart monitor" and take your pick. – DavidPostill Aug 04 '16 at 17:20
