You probably don't need DiskSalv or QBTools. Just wait until the hard disk light goes out and then it should be validated. If it's not, then copy all the data off of the drive, format it, and then copy the files back on. If the drive won't validate itself, and you can't copy the files off of it, then DiskSalv ot QBTools may be your only option.
