Hi All,

I've been looking for a generic diagnostic tool that is simple to test a hard disk. The diagnostic program can boot from a floppy disk or ideally boot from compact flash.
Just want "something" I connect a hard disk to, leave it running a destructive test for 24hrs and provide a report either good or throw it in the rush bin.

Had a quick play but from the list of MHDD commands I can't see a drive integrity check option...or am I missing something?
Can MHDD be setup to do this, self boot and run a diagnostic automatically?

Rob.

Hello robertg,

You can run a scan verify for integrity check. read the Manual for MHDD.

You can run a batch to perform a automatic diagnostic.

Or u can run a selfscan procedure on the hard drive just start the selfscan connect the hdd like 40 gb maxtor to a powersupply and after 12 hours u get a fresh hdd .
