Two different disks, two near-identical results.You can read the HDs IDs on the black bar on top. W1F0WXJW is HD1. Z1F3362S is HD4.
HD4 - brand new, mint out of the bag 2 weeks ago ready to go into NAS, never spun until yesterday when I started testing.... fails Victoria EXACTLY like HD1. I tested it "for a laugh"... and I am NOT laughing.
Now I just started running Victoria on the entire HD surface, it will take its time (and Victoria only test 49% of the disk each time, don't ask me why).
These results also questions Victoria.
At the same time, HD1, passed by SeaTools and Lifeguard, was logged as a "fail" by NAS, so I really do not know what to think.
I wish I could say "I give up"
