If i'm not mistaken, neither are tools intended for continuously monitoring drives ;)

yes you are right. but once in a while you can always test your hard disk using these tools.
 
hard disk sentinels

it even tells the power on time of hdd and estimated remaining lifetime of ur hdd (i dont know if other apps do so )

just added to contribute the thread if it helps.
 
My Segate 250Gig is making that krich-kirch noise.

SpeedFan SMART monitor isn't reporting any problems.

How do I check for bad sector's? Can't use chkdsk as the drive has my OS on it..

hdtune.

Use the scan option to run a hardware scan. no reboot/OS drive issues required.
