Quick Disk Test
This test performs a non-destructive read/write on one block per track on the disk. The test reads one block on
each track, saves the data, and proceeds to write and read four test patterns to the bytes in the block. If the
block is good, the saved data is written back to the disk.
To run the Quick Disk Test:
1. Select DEVICE TESTS from the Diagnostics Menu.
2. Select Quick Disk Test.
• The power indicator blinks while the test is in progress.
• Quick Disk Test/Test Passed is displayed if the test passes and the power indicator turns on solid.
• Quick Disk Test/Test Failed is displayed if the test failed and the power indicator turns on solid.
You cannot stop the test while it is running, but when it is complete, press to return to DEVICE TESTS.
