Disk - Latest Probe

This page shows the information about a disk during the most recent probe of that disk.

This information on this page includes:

• sector size and sector information
• the number of heads
• the number of cylinders
• the logical block size
• the capacity of the disk
• the RPM or revolutions per minute of the disk
• the elapsed time the disk has been powered on
• spare blocks
• the current write protection setting
• the cache enabled setting
• whether failure is predicted for this disk
• the time and date of the last probe
• the unallocated space
• the number of primary defects
• the number of grown defects
• the Non-Medium errors
• the recorded operating temperature

The additional information shown is a breakdown of recovered errors, unrecovered errors, and the number of bytes broken down by Write, Read, and Verify.

Also included are three SCSI disk bit settings that you can turn on/off and the change will actually be made to the disk settings the next time a probe is run on that disk. These include:

• on/off settings for:
• Automatic read reallocation
• Automatic write reallocation
• Read continuous (no error correction)

Note: Some of these values are manufacturer specific, so if they are unavailable, then you will see N/A for a value.
