Proactive disk checks?

Hi folks,
Has anybody out there written a check for Nagios that detects a failing
disk?
A number of years ago I wrote a shell script that ran from a crontab
that just checked latency on JBOD disks as a rough way of determining a
drive that was about to fail.
Platform I want to run these checks on is Fedora Core 12 and the iostat
command does not behave the same way it did on a Sun under Solaris 8
OS.
