No but just as a precaution I'd suggest doing a full disk scan.

Which tool is safest?

Use chkdsk like he said, but without the 'detect bad sectors' option, and
also use Everest free version or smartmontools. The drive detects bad
sectors itself, and those tools display the SMART stats. Software like
chkdsk can't even see the bad sectors unless there are so many that SMART
can't reallocate them, in which case chkdsk can't do anything except take a
very long time to scan it.
