can run certain tests in destructive mode (i.e. surface scan tests). Destructive tests

will speed up testing because FDAT does not preserve the data on the media prior

to the test beginning. Unlike non-destructive tests, any data present on the media

prior to the test beginning is lost.

FDAT allows for enabling or disabling destructive tests, as well as specifying a

range of destructive and non-destructive sectors on the tested drive. This is done

through the configuration of the FDAT.INI. If destructive and non-destructive

ranges somehow overlap, then the overlapped area is considered non-destructive.

For example, if users specify both destructive and non-destructive ranges as the

same, then the entire drive is tested as non-destructive.

Quick and Full erase - hard drive

The diagnostics program offers two hard drive format utilities:

v Quick Erase Hard Drive

v Full Erase Hard Drive

The

Quick Erase Hard Drive provides a DOS utility that performs the following:

v Destroys the Master Boot Record (MBR) on the hard drive.

v Destroys all copies of the FAT Table on all partitions (both the master and

backup).

v Destroys the partition table.

v Provides messages that warn the user that this is a non-recoverable process.

The

Full Erase Hard Drive provides a DOS utility that performs the following:

v Performs all the steps in Quick Erase.

v Provides a DOS utility that writes random data to all sectors of the hard drive.

v Provides an estimate of time to completion along with a visual representation of

completion status.

v Provides messages that warn the user about non-recoverable process.

Important: Make sure that all data is backed up before using the Quick or Full Erase

functions.

To select the Quick Erase or Full Erase Hard Drive utility, use the following

procedure:

1. Select the UTILITY option on the toolbar and press Enter.

2. Select either the QUICK ERASE or FULL ERASE HARD DISK option and

follow the instructions.

Viewing the test log

Errors reported by the diagnostic test will be displayed by the program as a failed

test.

To view details of a failure or to view a list of test results, use the following

procedure from any test category screen:

1. Press F3 to activate the log file.

2. Press F3 again to save the file to diskette or press F2 to print the file.
