monitoring options.
Disk Test Setup Menu
The Disk Test Setup menu provides several testing options including the test time, frequency, and
duration.
Disk Test: Options include Disable, Test Now, Test Periodically. The Test Periodically option runs
the Disk Test at the specified frequency. The Disk Tests run in the background and will not interfere
with normal operations.
Test Frequency in hours: From 0 to 1000 hours between tests.
Test Duration: This option is for the type of test to run; Fast or Thorough. The Thorough test will
test significantly more sectors than the Fast test. GE recommends using the Thorough test. The Fast
test can miss some disk failures.
Use the Jog to move between the menu fields and the Shuttle for the selections within the fields.
When satisfied with the selections select OK and press the Enter button to execute.
The Disk Test will run in the background and will not interfere with normal operations. Once the disk
test is done, a message will appear on the screen indicating the test result.
