Is it a myth or truth that the best software to test the surface area and bad blocks on a Seagate HDD is Seatools? I use a Seagate 2.5" 500GB HDD + a Sata to USB 3.0 adapter plugged into the USB 3.0 port on the back of the motherboard. The HD Tune test found a few red blocks, but the Seatools Detailed Generic Test showed the HDD passed the test. The different results are very strange. Which one is more reliable? |

do you get the reds at same loc if you test multiple times? i suspect it is a result of OS interaction with the DUT. unmount any partitions on that drive and run the test that way pepe |

I performed two or three tests with HD Tune and the same red block in the same place Is SeaTools reliable and safe for accurate scans? |
