Its the diagnostic tool that I use for Seagate
Is there another tool that you prefer?
OK, so I’m a newbee at this disc checking and not too sure what test I should perform – some help would be appreciated 😊
Single drives populate as SAS-SCSI-FC & USB-1394 - i'm guessing this is the partitions?
Disc 1, I got the following:
Long Generic test on USB-1394 = Fail
Short Generic test on USB-1394 = Fail
Short DST on USB-1394 - Pass
Long Generic test on SAS-SCSI-FC = Pass
Short Generic test on SAS-SCSI-FC = Fail
Short DST on SAS-SCSI-FC = Fail
Reinstalled this on its own in bay 1 of the NAS – got error “Bad disc found: Found Bad Disk 1”
Disc 2 I got the following:
Long Generic test on USB-1394 = Very Long so aborted this test.
Short Generic test on USB-1394 = FAIL
Short DST on USB-1394 - PASS
Long Generic test on SAS-SCSI-FC = PASS
Short Generic test on SAS-SCSI-FC = FAIL
Short DST on SAS-SCSI-FC = FAIL
Reinstalled this on its own in bay 2 of the NAS – got error “ERP bad firmware”
Disc 3 I got the following:
Long Generic test on USB-1394 = Very Long so aborted this test.
Short Generic test on USB-1394 = FAIL
Short DST on USB-1394 - FAIL
Long Generic test on SAS-SCSI-FC = Very Long so aborted this test.
Short Generic test on SAS-SCSI-FC = FAIL
Short DST on SAS-SCSI-FC = FAIL
Reinstalled this on its own in bay 3 of the NAS – got error “c: 1/1GB free”
Disc 4 I got the following:
Long Generic test on USB-1394 = Very Long so aborted this test
Short Generic test on USB-1394 = PASS
Short DST on USB-1394 = PASS
Long Generic test on SAS-SCSI-FC = Very Long so aborted this test
Short Generic test on SAS-SCSI-FC = PASS
Short DST on SAS-SCSI-FC = PASS
Reinstalled this on its own in bay 4 of the NAS – got error “c: 1/1GB free”
Not sure how long the “Long Generic Test” should take on a 2TB hard Drive?
Cannot seem to gain access to any of the drives – can you explain what is needed to see if I can extract any information? Do I initialise disk in “disc management” in windows 10?
If discs 1, 2 & 3 are dead, Is it possible to replace them, retaining disc 4 and resurrect the system or do all the drive require re formatting and start again?
