fsck -vc/-vcc calls the program badblocks to do this test. Unfortunately (I’m pretty sure) fsck is only capable of doing this on Linux filesystems (ext 2/3/4?). If you want to do a full drive test, use badblocks directly:

badblocks -nvs /dev/hda

Unfortunately, I’m not sure this will record the badblocks. In fact I’m thinking it may not, but at least you can find if they exist. Badblock I believe are recorded in the filesystem metadata meaning that if, for example, you have an NTFS partition on the drive, you’ll probably have to use the MS toold like chkdisk.
