Auto Interleave Utility

Warning
The Auto Interleave utility destroys hard disk data.
Back up the data on the hard disk before running
this utility.
The Auto Interleave utility calculates the
optimum interleave factor through trial
and error by measuring the transfer rate
for four different interleave values. To
determine the best interleave factor, the
system formats a portion of the hard disk
for each transfer rate calculated. The
cylinders, heads and sectors formatted for
each value is displayed in the activity
box. It does not work on IDE or SCSI
drives.
Select Auto Interleave on the main Hard
Disk Utility Screen and press <Enter>. The
following appears.
The cursor is on Mark Bad Tracks. The
default is N. To mark additional bad
tracks, type Y and press <Enter>. After
selecting options from the Bad Tracks Edit
