Verify Hard Drive was swapped 30 weeks 5 days ago

I recently had a vendor hot-swap a faulty hard drive on my system. The fault was determined before there were any noticeable errors with regular operation on the user end. The vendor claims to have replaced the faulty hard drive. Is there a way to verify that the hard drive has been replaced? I checked prtdiag and did not immediately see any dates or times associated with the hard drives.

For a few weeks now my Ubuntu 12.04 system has been locking up. The hard drive seemed to keep locking up and going into read-only mode. I have to reboot in order to keep working on it.

So, I decided to just clone the hard drive and see if I can recover it.

When I do a regular copy of all files from the drive to another, it gets to about 110 megs in and gives me an input/output error.

Im having issues with my external hard drive (usb, called "Elements", machine PC123, user user123), while playing music or videos on it.

When playing music, it usually skips 2 tracks in the playlist, and plays the next track which is on that same drive. Also, it can play the skipped tracks right after.

My computer was in "sleep" mode when I removed the hard drive for a quick inspection.

I sat the hard drive down and left for a few.

When I came back, I forgot I took the hard drive out and turned on the computer, bringing it from "sleep".

I got buffer errors and location errors.

I tried to put my computer back to sleep, but couldn't so I simply turned it off.

I've been struggling today with a hard drive that would go into read only mode as I was getting errors in the dmesg related to sata. The system was doing an update and it crashed on me and I was unable to do anything since it said I needed to run dpkg --reconfigure -a but the computer would freeze on me during the command.

Hi,

I had put a second Sata hard drive in my computer and was pleasantly surprised not to run into any problems. No BIOS changes, just start the partitioner, partition, mount, it worked.

I have an old 2.5" IDE hard drive taking off Acer Ferrari 4000. I set a password for the hard-drive in BIOS. Laptop broke now I have only the hard drive - I remember the password.

Yet, I tried putting the hard-drive to another laptop (Thinkpad A21m) but it didn't recognize the hard-drive and complained about "no hard drive found".

I am new user of Ubuntu and have just installed server 12.04 for use in the school that I am running in Honduras. I have a second hard drive installed for use by the school and teachers. I want to use this second hard drive for file storage. When I type in lshw I can see the drive; logical name: /dev/sdb. The hard drive is formated to NTFS.
