read
|
Reads each sector on the current disk.
Repairs defective blocks as a default.
|
refresh
|
Reads then writes data on the current
disk without harming the data. Repairs defective blocks as a default.
|
test
|
Writes a set of patterns to the disk
without harming the data. Repairs defective blocks as a default.
|
write
|
Writes a set of patterns to the disk
then reads the data on the disk back. Destroys existing data on the disk.
Repairs defective blocks as a default.
|
compare
|
Writes a set of patterns to the disk,
reads the data back, and then compares it to the data in the write buffer.
Destroys existing data on the disk. Repairs defective blocks as a default.
|
purge
|
Removes all data from the disk so that
the data can't be retrieved by any means. Data is removed by writing three
distinct patterns over the entire disk (or a section of the disk). If the
verification passes, a hex-bit pattern is written over the entire disk (or
a section of the disk).
Repairs defective blocks as a default.
|
verify
|
Writes unique data to each block on
the entire disk in the first pass. Reads and verifies the data in the next
