Abilayjuve,
You would need to test outside of the OS. Download and run the provided link on a windows system to create a form of bootable media you choose, and then boot the server to that media. You can then run a complete SMART test on the drives. FYI, the complete test will take awhile.
32Bit Diagnostics - www.dell.com/.../poweredge-2950
Let me know how it goes.

What version diagnostic are you using?
What Perc controller, if any, do you have installed?
What version is the driver and firmware for the drives and controller?
