Disk Test/Clean

This test causes the disk to be low-level formatted. The test destroys all data on the disk
and should not be attempted on a good disk. Normally this test is used only when the disk
contains bad data and is therefore unusable.
Note: This can be an extremely lengthy test; however, the test length depends on the
disk size.
Note: This test leaves the disk unformatted. The CE or user must reformat the disk using
the Format Disk menu operation.
To run this test, select Disk Test/Clean from the DEVICE TESTS menu. The following
message is displayed to warn the customer that all disk contents are lost. To continue
with the test, press Go. To exit the test immediately and return to the DEVICE TESTS
screen, press Return or Stop. The Power indicator also blinks while the test is in
progress.
