Option 3, Non-destructive Surface Analysis
The Non-destructive surface analysis does not destroy any data,
and you can use it to safely check the condition of your hard
disk drive. However, this test does not flag any bad tracks it
detects.
To start the test, select 3-Non-destructive surface
analysis from the Hard Disk Format Menu. You see these
messages:
Analyze Hard Disk
<Drive l:>
Read/Verify check for all tracks...
Current cylinder is nnnn
As the program checks each track, it counts the cylinder
numbers down to zero. When the test is complete, the program
displays a report on the status of the disk, such as the following:
Analysis finished.
Count of tracks flagged bad
=
n
Count of tracks with read, verify errors =
n
Count of good tracks
= nnnn
No read,
