Data corruption on HDD - should I still use it?

Hi, I recently began experiencing data corruption errors on my OS SATA HDD
(I am using XP Pro sp3). I performed CHKDSK /F and it seemed to have fixed
the issue. Then a few days later I couldnt boot into my OS at all. There was
an error telling me that C:\WINDOWS\system32\config\system was corrupt or
missing. I tried a few things but in the end I just restored my OS image
onto a PATA drive instead and all was well again.

While I was reconfiguring my system I decided to use the SATA drive as a
data drive instead. I performed a quick format on that SATA drive from
within XP and copied across a few files onto that SATA drive. I then noticed
those data files turned corrupt on that drive.I then performed a CHKDSK /F
on it and it was trying to fix the errors for over 15min. I then gave up and
stopped the CHKDSK process and did a normal reformat of the SATA drive. Then
I did another CHKDSK /F on the drive and all was well.

I am a bit sceptical about this drive now and don't know if i should use it
anymore due to the issues I had with it. What can I do to test whether this
drive actually has something wrong with it or not?

Any help appreciated.

Cheers,
