> Do you mean "fsck" or something else?

fsck is a filesystem checker only, it doesn't check the actual physical
media. For that, use the badblocks utility. You can run it yourself if
you haven't yet built a filesystem, or you can have mkfs call it. It can
do a read testing, write testing, and non-destructive write testing.
