14.8 Hard Disk Detection
14.8.1 S.M.A.R.T. Test
Click Maintenance > HDD > S.M.A.R.T. Test to do the S.M.A.R.T.
test.
S.M.A.R.T. (enabled by default) checks the head, platter, motor, and
circuit of hard disks to evaluate their health status. The overall
evaluation results include Healthy, Failure, and Bad Sectors. It is
recommended to replace the disk immediately if the status is Failure.
NOTE!
âš« Some hard disks only support some of the test items.
âš« The system provides three test types: Short, Extended,
and Conveyance. Extended tests detect more thoroughly
and thus take longer time than Short tests. Conveyance
tests mainly detect data transmission problems.
CAUTION!
Using a faulty disk is risky. Faulty disks should be replaced
immediately.
