I have some drives in the mail coming to me. It could be 2–3 weeks from now.

I also have some 6tb drives I can use to store some data till these drives come in. They are Western Digital SMR drives. What testing method can I do to ensure that the drives will not fail till the new ones come?

I understand it's a risk, hopefully nothing happens.
