Hi

OEMs like Dell, HP etc, have their own disk monitoring tools. I think that outside normal specifications means that the system detected a S.M.A.R.T. failure or TEC.

Have a look here for more information on those terms

You can check your HDD's S.M.A.R.T. records:

Download the free program SMARTUDM - HDD S.M.A.R.T. Viewer

Put the program on a boot floppy or a bootable USB stick and boot from it.

(To make a USB drive bootable:

HP USB Disk Storage Format Tool - v2.1.8 Download - EXTREME Overclocking)

Chose "Create a DOS startup disk, using DOS System Files Located at:" then point to a bootable floppy and copy the bootfiles from there)

After you boot your system from the floppy (or the USB), on the prompt type: smartudm
Select the first drive of your system, and keep pressing <ENTER> until the program asks you to press R to generate a report.
Generate the report and then do the same for the second disk.

I windows, open the reports with Notepad, save them as .txt (makes viewing easier) and post them here.
