How to know if disk is broken out?

Hi all,

I'm a noob solaris administrator and I own a Sun Enterprise 250 machine.
   A couple of days ago, one of the disks refused to pass "every-reboot"
fsck. Some time ago I had had some troubles with this same disk, but
they were solved easily with "fsck -y xxxxx" command.
But, in this case, when i try to issue that instruction on the affected
disk it gives me back a "cannot open device" and some "i/o errors" which
seems that disk has failed.

How can get ensure that it is actually broken out, and that I _DO_ need
to replace this disk?

Thanks a lot.
