Diagnosing HD Problems NV+/SSH

One of the drives in my NV+ is likely going to die. It has has intermittent heavy clicking symptoms during which reads/writes hang. There seems to be no hint in the web console SMART parameters as to which drive it might be. I have the SSH plugin enabled. Is there anything I can use to try to figure out which drive to pull?

    Please do

    # smartctl -a /dev/hdc
    # smartctl -a /dev/hde
    # smartctl -a /dev/hdg
    # smartctl -a /dev/hdi


    Edit: actually looks like you can manually do an online long test e.g.

    # smartctl -t long /dev/hdc
